A dessert menu
without a pastry chef.

The Pain Point

No pastry chef on staff. Still a real dessert menu.

Most Los Angeles restaurants can't justify a pastry chef, so the dessert menu becomes an afterthought — or a freezer. There's a better answer. Since 1979 our family has baked the dessert course for restaurants that want it to taste like the rest of the menu: individual cakes, verrines, cheesecakes, tarts and minis, made to your spec, arriving ready to plate.

You keep the plating and the garnish. We keep the ovens.

How a Program Works

Five desserts. One weekly delivery.

Pick a core five

Say, chocolate lava cake, tiramisu, key lime pie, strawberry panna cotta and a seasonal cheesecake — chosen by name from the catalog.

Make one yours

A signature dessert developed to your chef's recipe or ours, sampled and approved, exclusive to your menu.

Set the week

A standing order that arrives on your delivery day; adjust counts by 11am for next-morning.

Rotate the season

Swap a dessert each season without changing the workflow — pumpkin cream in fall, berry tarts in summer.

Formats That Plate

Built for the pass.

Individual portions that go from cooler to plate in one motion and hold under a heat lamp for the length of a ticket: mousse domes, lava cakes, panna cotta, cheesecake slices from 10" rounds, verrines in the cup. Minis for a tasting flight or a dessert board.

Vegan & Gluten-Free on the Menu

The whole table orders dessert.

A full vegan line and gluten-free options that look like the rest of the menu, so the server never has to say "we have sorbet."

Vegan & Gluten-Free

Breads & Service Items

Also on the truck.

For restaurants already on our delivery route, brioche loaves, bagels, lavash, crostini and service breads can ride along with the dessert order — quoted per account.

Questions

Questions buyers ask us.

Can a restaurant run a dessert menu without a pastry chef?

Yes. Paris Bakery LA supplies Los Angeles restaurants with a standing dessert program — individual cakes, verrines, cheesecakes, tarts and minis made to your spec and delivered ready to plate — so a kitchen without a pastry chef still serves a real dessert course.

How many desserts should a restaurant menu carry?

A core of four to six works for most menus: one chocolate, one fruit, one cream or custard, one cheesecake, one seasonal, plus a vegan or GF option. We help build it and rotate one item each season.

Can you make a signature dessert exclusive to our restaurant?

Yes. We develop it to your chef's recipe or ours, sample it, and once approved it's produced only for your menu as part of the standing order.

What is the minimum and how does delivery work?

The order minimum is $350, which one weekly delivery covers for most restaurants. Order or adjust by 11am for next-morning delivery by our own drivers; delivery is quoted by route.

Do you also deliver bread to restaurants?

For accounts on our route, service breads, brioche, bagels and crostini can ride along with the dessert order. Desserts are our focus; breads are quoted per account.
