Crema's Take
“This Madison spot is a delightful escape for bubble tea lovers and pastry enthusiasts, where the staff's genuine warmth makes choosing from their creative menu feel like getting a recommendation from a friend. Their signature drinks arrive in impressively generous portions—think fruit combo green teas and ancient brown sugar bubble tea that actually taste as good as they look—while their house-made mousse desserts and taro toast showcase a real commitment to quality ingredients without unnecessary additives. Whether you're grabbing a quick pick-me-up or settling in after a show, the combination of playful, Instagram-worthy beverages and carefully crafted pastries keeps people coming back.”

Went around 6 PM on 12/9, cashier was very helpful in helping me choose which drink to get and very friendly. I got the ancient brown sugar bubble tea and it was delicious, highly recommend!
We stopped here after a show. So glad we did! We got the strawberry mousse, matcha cheese cake and 2 drinks. Their beverage drink is massive! I got the fruit combo green tea and my husband got the dragon fruit mango refresher. Both were SO delicious and refreshing! I especially loved mine, and there was real fruit with the tea! The strawberry mousse was delicious, the outter shell was perfect and crisp. In the center of the mousse there was what I think is chocolate with a strawberry jam. It was so good! So glad I don't live closer because I would be going every day. Haha! The vibes are perfect! 5/5
Came to visit Madison for the day and stopped here: the girl at the register was super cheery and sweet. We were super excited and we ordered three of their mousse desserts and the total came to $42 not including tax or tip. We got the lemon, mango and strawberry. Our group of four tried all of them and the lemon was so bad we couldn’t finish it, with its texture and flavor being overwhelmingly awful. The strawberry was extremely bland. The mango was okay, with its filling sweet, but definitely not much better. Would definitely not recommend.
Le C's Patisserie & Tea House offers a selection of pastries made with natural ingredients, free of additives and preservatives—a refreshing commitment to quality. The transparency about the ingredients, confirmed by the knowledgeable and friendly cashier, is commendable. While the prices are slightly higher, they reflect the use of natural ingredients, which is understandable. However, some of the pastries fell short in execution. The dough was undercooked at the bottom, and the filling was sparse compared to the amount of dough. This spot is ideal for bread lovers who appreciate simple, natural flavors but may not satisfy those seeking expertly crafted pastries.
My first time stopping here from all reviews. Yes! I love taro toast. It’s not too sweet at all. I ordered pomelo mango sago. It’s beautiful presentation bottle and colorful and also testy ( I ordered 50% sweet). I wished they opened more location!! I would suggested La crosse location has 3 colleges. Opens more!
