Desserts By Clément

By far the best trompe l'oeil pastries in San Diego. Super cute location and easily accessible. Plenty of parking. The lemon was by far my favorite but if you can't decide get the sampler pack!

Came from Atlanta to try these pastries and it did not disappoint! They were delicious!! They were not too sweet and wonderful mix of flavors. Our favorite was the mango! Then blueberry and pistachio! My toddlers had fun trying these. Clean place and great vibes.

I discovered this place from Instagram posts so I had to try it when visiting San Diego. The shop is adorable and the woman at the counter was so friendly. She helped me select the perfect pastry to bring back home to NH. The holiday mushroom I had on site was delicious and worth the price. I only wish they had a few dairy free options for people with allergies. They do have gluten free though. I will definitely come back next time I visit.

New review -I tried their too good to go order before, they just gave me two really old almond croissants which made me feel very disappointed. But this time I went there again for dessert, since I just had brunch very close by. I asked the staff Raspberry or Mango, which she would recommend, she answered Mango without hesitation. So I chose mango to give a try, it was sooooo delicious! Even though their price isn’t cheap but the quality of the dessert is really high, it’s worthy of the cost, it is like an artwork. Precious review- I’ve heard so many good things about this dessert store. There’s one day I found it available at Too Good To Go app. I was supposed to be that area that day and grabbed the TGTG bag. The store was busy and beautiful! Their desserts are so pretty as well. While the TGTG bag was just two almond croissants inside… they definitely look like leftovers and the skin wasn’t crispy anymore. The waitress was a little bit impatient and rushed, it was kinda busy but she’s definitely not that happy that day to show on the face. I might come back to try their desserts in the future but the croissants didn’t taste that good.

I am obsessed with the Halloween vibes at Desserts By Clèment today! From creepy skeletons to desserts crafted for a fun Halloween theme, they are in the spirit all the way! I live about an hour away, but any time I'm in San Diego, I must stop by! Originally came down the first time with my nephew who saw the viral desserts on TikTok. They are as delicious as they are beautiful! Today I tried the skull and pumpkin and they were a taste of heaven. The skull is rich, creamy chocolate with a raspberry center and melts in your mouth. I also tried the pumpkin which is light and airy with a smooth chai/pumpkin flavor, it's not too rich, which was perfect. I'm excited to come try their sandwiches sometime. I didn't realize in addition to their desserts, they also have actual food too! And super yummy coffee drinks. Thanks to everyone who makes this place so special!
