Small cakes as masterpieces

A head chef trained in France, years setting up high-end pastry kitchens in Saigon.

i had pancakes at le petit

Le Petit Bake&Cake — 33 Mac Thi Buoi, District 1 — is a French-style bakery aiming to bring five-star baking standards to a wider audience: finest imported ingredients and freshest local fruits.

From the pink-brick front is an open kitchen and the soufflé griddle — pancakes rise before your eyes, then box up as PAN & CAKE to go.

The soufflé pancake line is the shop’s visual signature: crème brûlée, chocolate, caramel, strawberry, banana — with soft-serve, in pink boxes.

Beyond pancakes are almond and chocolate croissants, crème brûlée, mille crepe and Choco Crunchy Pop — and the shop’s charming purple wrapping.
