Lily Paris Wa - Fremantle

Stopped by for coffee and a sweet treat yesterday whilst visiting the market and walked away with a box of goodies. My husband and I have travelled extensively in France and Paris and I can testify that the tarts and pastries here, certainly measure up to what we have eaten in some very good French patisseries over there. Whilst the teeny tiny patisserie is not the prettiest of locales don't let this deter you. The French owner/baker was very a friendly young woman who greeted everyone with enthusiasm. I had a chocolate raspberry tart that had a perfectly cooked light as air pastry shell covered in a thin layer of rich chocolate ganache. The shell was then filled with a lovely homemade light vanilla custard filling then topped with a pink chantilly cream and fresh raspberries. My husband had a lightly warmed giant palmier pastry heart that he declared one of the best he has ever eaten. (He is a serious palmier connoisseur so this was high praise indeed). Our sweet treats were arranged lovingly on long oval dishes and accompanied by very good coffees. On the basis of what we ate for an impromptu afternoon treat, we bought a further selection of small tarts which we have polished off in the last 24 hours. Living on the other side of Perth I only get to Freo two or three times a year but Lily Paris will definitely be getting my custom every time I go to Freo from now on.

We never go pass Lily Paris without buying something to take home, usually the big box of yummy macarons. Many different flavours to chose from. This time we also couldn't go without trying the Petit Fours (tartlets) and these are also delicious. We will return to try the coffee and bruschetta and other delights they are serving. Friendly service. Highly recommend.

We enjoyed a delicious flat white coffee at this charming little café in the Fremantle Markets. The service was excellent.

What an amazing find! We stumbled upon this place from the street and were immediately impressed by the display. The coffee was fantastic and the cronut was warm and delicious. All of this for only $18, what a great deal for a lovely morning tea.

It took us a few turns in the street to finally find Lily Paris, and wow, it was worth it! We purchased chocolate goodies, and the mocha torte was simply out of this world. Rich, moist and wonderfully chocolate, and I wish we had purchased...the entire cake because it was that good. It's in a tucked away area of Fremantle, so be sure to look for it. It's worth it!
