Adorable French Bakery

My thoughts about the Adorable French Bakery opening a brick and mortar location in Scotts Valley? FINALLY! I love the what they have done with the previous space -lighten and brighten it and make it their own. The fireplace is a cozy welcome on a chilly morning. The outside patio is expansive and feels like you can spread out, but they did not compromise the aesthetics. I have always been a huge fan of the AFB’s baked items- my top 3 recommendations are the cream puff, berry crumble and French tart. They offer more than a few gluten free options and i forget their gluten free. My favorites are the apricot pistachio tart and the raspberry tart. The Swiss cake is delicious, but go for it when you are in a glutinous and indulgent mood-it’s rich! If you are craving a a tasty but not fussy salad come here, the dressing delivers and is it overly ambitious. Recently I enjoyed a satisfying Butternut squash soup and was happily surprised to find they included a little bacon in it. I look forward to what they are going to do.

Beautiful spot, awesome pastries. I love the gluten free options. I used to visit them at the farmer's market on the west side of SC. I'm so happy that they're in my town now :)
