Creme de la Creme Patisserie

Husband-and-wife duo Samih Ladkani and Jasmin Jammal Ladkani spent five years building their patisserie business from home, “e-commerce style”. But in June, faced with overwhelming customer support, they opened a bricks-and-mortar site in Spotswood. Pastry chef Jasmin marries traditional French techniques with the flavours of her Middle Eastern heritage for creative pastries that strike a chord with locals. They’re all made from scratch in a kitchen that’s on full display through the front window.

Signature item: Knafeh croissant ($10.50), which riffs on the sweet, cheesy Middle Eastern dessert.
