Sucré

An elegant dessert shop with a warm, upscale atmosphere. The desserts are beautifully presented and absolutely delicious.

This place is great. The Macaroons are top notch and they have other desserts too. I just purchased one of their king cakes which tasted as good as it looked. It is sort of traditional but more moist imo.

I went to Sucré in New Orleans for the first time and the bakery itself was really nice and clean. I tried the citrus madeleine and it was yummy, no complaints about the pastry at all. What really ruined the experience for me was the cashier. She was chewing, smacking lips loudly right in my face while I was ordering, which felt really unprofessional. When I asked questions, she answered like she did not want to be there. I also did not know they do not take cash, so when I tried to pay with cash she got a little attitude. What made it more awkward was that the other worker who helped my friends was actually really friendly and kind, so I guess I just got unlucky. The bakery itself is nice, but the customer service really depends on who you get.

We stopped by Sucré specifically because of another review mentioning gluten-free and dairy-free options. The place is beautiful and the pastries look absolutely flawless. But it only ended up tempting me and leaving me a bit frustrated, because the only dairy-free options were three fruit sorbets. I cook a lot and I know it’s possible to make amazing desserts without gluten or dairy. It’s simply not this shop’s specialty. If you don’t have dietary restrictions, go for it — everything looks fantastic. The girls at the counter on Magazine Street are super kind, and their knowledge of the menu is impressive!

Disappointing! The girls that work here are sooooo nice! But the desserts were mediocre. The macaron was nice but I’ve had better, but the lavender citron cake was bad. It didn’t taste like lavender at all despite being bright purple and the citrus was so weak. It wasn’t even a good lemon cake, it was just bland and sweet. The space is so cute, it’s a shame the desserts aren’t worth the visit.
