Belle Sucre Bakery

Uhhhh what’s the big deal about this place? I went in and they had a couple desserts and some macaroons. They rolled by some loaves of bread and I asked if they had sandwich bread. The girl said yes and told me the ingredients and made it sound amazing. I asked her some questions about the flour they use and was very excited to get some bread to make sandwiches for the rest of the week. I said I’d take a loaf and she told me they weren’t for sale and that those were for a restaurant. Ok; got it. You’re a bakery that doesn’t sell bread to people. I understand that the bread was made specifically for the restaurant, as the «friendly» note from the owner below states, but it sure wasn’t fun to be teased by what appeared to be amazing bread.
The macaroons were okay but nothing to write home about. The place smelled like delicious bread, but being refused to purchase any really ruined my evening. The ambienceof the bakery was quaint and cute, but the experience was just overall very disappointing.

Please take it from as a former pastry chef, this place is an excellent French style bakery!
Perhaps a bit too fancy for little ‘ol El Paso — But then more people need to appreciate what they’re putting out, which are really exceptionally good croissants, breads and pastries.
Obviously it’s more expensive than your standard local bakery or supermarket, but what you pay for here is the quality.
So give them a try and judge for yourself!

Hands down, best bakery in El Paso. Been several times now and they always have something new to try. The cereal macaroons are always awesome.

The macaroons are amazing !!! And just walking in there it smells delicious! The other pastries looked delicious as well so I will definitely be going back to try everything they have!

This has became my favorite bakery in El Paso and lives up to the hype. I especially like their macaroons! They are so fluffy and yummy. Everything else they make is absolutely delicious. I bought a pecan caramel pie and pumpkin pie for Christmas and their pecan pie was a tad bit too sweet for me. They have a good selection of pastries all fresh made. Overall, when I need a sugar fix this is the place I go.

I got a chocolate croissant from their East Side and was completely disappointed. I cut the croissant in half and there was only one small piece of chocolate in it.

Tiny little bakery on the west side that puts out a variety of items. I failed to take pictures of my food before I ate them this time. A testament to the deliciousness that Belle Sucre offers. They offer certain types of breads on different days. Their macarons are a big draw but I didn’t try them the first go round. I did try a raspberry bar (or was it cranberry? Honestly it doesnt matter. It was sweet) that was gooey and amazing. I also tried their fruit tart (sooooo good) which layerwed with a fresh fruit and cheese cakey creaminess. If I am looking for a dessert to impress I will definitely hit up Belle Sucre Bakery again

This is absolutely the freshest and best bakery in El Paso. The macarons are incredible, as are the croissants. Go early before they sell out! Go to this place, you wont be sorry!

Amazing bakery. Everything in the case is decadent, hand made, and worth every cent. I love the chocolate bombe, the TK Nutter Butter, and the chocolate caramel croissant is absolute heaven. If you’re looking for something rich, beautiful, and indulgent, stop in here and treat yourself!
The macarons are delicious and come in tons of flavors. If they have it, and you like pecan pie, get the salted caramel pecan tart… OMG so incredible.

I was having friends over for lunch and asked my daughter to pick up some croissants. She found Belle Sucre & bought 6 croissants. The price was $ 19, which is quite pricey compared to prices in Chicago. We just relocated here. Having said that, the croissants were twice the size of a traditions croissant, and they were absolutely delicious! One of my friends asked to take the remaining home as they were so wonderful. The times we’ve driven by on a Saturday, the line of people has been out the door. I plan to visit the ship myself & buy some of their other pastries.

Awesome little bakery: flour bags stacked by entrance and fresh bread smell tell you they know what they are doing. July 4 special: the brownie chocolate ice cream banana chocolate chip sandwich was OUT OF THIS WORLD.

I always order my macaroons here. Very nice service, delicious macaroons, yet we went when they didn’t have much options at all since we went at 5pm. There were only two tables but it was nicely decorated. They are exceptional at their macaroons yet they only had three different flavor a for us to chose from, no baguettes, and no coffee.

This specialty pastry shop serves small pieces of heaven. You can definitely eat them there or they are boxed up to enjoy at home which I prefer. Coffee is French pressed which makes for a robust cup of coffee. There is bread, croissants, with chocolate, cheese scones and cookies. Order ahead for large cakes, only the dainty beauties are available same day. Personnel is very nice and bakers are hard at work creating edible art, visible to the public. I love this place because it taps into my visual, senses.

REVIEW SOLELY BASED ON THE MACARONS!
Ok, so here goes. I had heard a lot of amazing things about this place, from it being the best pastry location in El Paso to it having the best macaroons peeps have ever tried.
I finally decided to go try some of these out of this world pastries, i bought one of each of the flavors they were offering at the time and i got to say, i don’t get it. The pastry itself is a great combination of a somewhat crunchy outside with a good gooey center but, well i honestly wasn’t taken back by it either. The macaron was good, but not something that would make me take the long drive to the far westside for this treat. I’d rather spend half the money buying a variety of Pan Dulces at a nearby bakery (Gussies). It’s a good little pastry place and so far I’m judging it based solely on their macaroons so I’ll be back to try everything else.
Maybe the next visits will make me change my mind and «get» the product they are selling as well as change the rating.

Two things:
A lot of their food has nuts in it and it is not always advertised. It is not nice to eat something you’re allergic to just because people can’t label things properly.
Their deserts are delicious and probably some of the best you can find in this dismal city though their prices are astronomical compared to the nice and cute mom-​and-​pop shops. For the price, you can find more for cheaper and the quality won’t go down much. Since this place is pretty much Mexican-​ville you can find cheaper delicious sweets a stone’s throw away from Belle Sucre.

I greatly appreciate the response by the owner of the store. They have opened my eyes to the pleasantness that is Belle Sucre.
Thank you for posting a sign to remind those that have allergies to ask about the ingredients. I am sorry that responsibility falls on you. It was my fault not to ask but I would love to prepare others that may be forgetful as well.
Your desserts are delicious and everyone buying them should appreciate all the love and work that goes into them. Quality definitely increases with price.
You, however, cannot change my opinion on El Paso. This city is a great boarder town but not great compared to other cities. However, I have not been here long. Someone like you, the owner of Belle Sucre, must give a lot of care to the state of the city and have seen it grow unlike me.
Thank you for your response.

Hands down, the best bakery in El Paso. I’ve been to a handful of other local bakeries and this is by far my favorite one in town. It is much pricier in comparison, but I think it’s worth every penny.
We got in about 4:15PM on Saturday and waited in line for about 15 minutes to order. Being first timers, we didn’t realize how popular this place was. Towards the end of the business day, they don’t restock their products. Luckily, we caught the tail end of their pastry inventory and we were able to get most of what we came in for (macarons and tarts). There are only two tables inside and we were able to hang out in one, to enjoy our pastries. As they got closer and closer to closing, we watched a lot of patrons 1) ask if there was going to be anymore and 2) leave disappointed. It prevents waste, so I completely agree with what they’re doing. It’s good for business, but not necessarily ideal for their customers. I don’t think they’re a chain, so I doubt they can afford to lose money by products being left on their shelves. I took a picture to give an idea of what their inventory looks like 45 minutes before they close on a Saturday.

I both wish there was a store in the Northeast El Paso, so I could have one nearby, and am glad there isn’t because I would be broke all the time. Belle Sucre has amazing products with fresh breads and desserts. You may find them expensive, but they ingredients are quality and you can tell the products are labor intensive. I would say my top three items are macarons, eclairs (which my dad loves), and the jalapeño cheese bread.

Love everything specially the chocolate éclair! I only wish they had more seating space, maybe adding some tables outside for the spring — summer — fall seasons…
Must try their breads, croissants are to die for!

Bakery bliss. Belle Sucre Bakery is unlike the other bakeries in town, because this bakery does not have pan dulce, this bakery makes scones and muffins and croissants and french bread, oh my!
Apart from the above mentioned items, they make gourmet pastries and macaroons, which are absolutely delicious. Yes, the place is small, two tables, but most people go in and out and don’t stay to eat the pastries there. Although I have on occasion purchased coffee to have with my bread, it’s still a small cute bakery to sit and enjoy your coffee and pastry.
They brew Building 6 coffee, which is so cool because it’s local, and they make the croissant donuts (yes cronuts, but the owner got served with papers from Ansel’s Bakery in NYC, how cool is that? Lol, admittedly not that cool for the owner, but his croissant donuts are delicious!)
My recommendation? I have tried many of the pastries, we ordered them for our Thanksgiving dinner, besides the eye candy, they are mouth candy, quite heavenly. The mango macaroon, the maple bacon scone, the banana muffin and honestly everything else. It’s an El Paso treasure.

Belle Sucre, if you don’t speak the language, is French for ‘Amazeballs!’ and that’s exactly what you can expect to get here, amazing balls of dough expertly crafted into pure deliciousness. Not just the best French bakery, but the best bakery and the best desserts in El Paso, hands down.
It’s a bit of a bait-​and-​switch operation: they lure you with their great selection of yummy Macarons, then you start trying other things until you realize you are completely hooked!
Macarons are a trendy dessert at the moment, and Belle Sucre’s are top notch, but frankly, it’s not even their 2^nd best item. The elusive No Names, aka Croissant-​Donuts are out of this world, and you will be angry the first time you realize their ability is limited. But even beyond that, the Caramel Apple Cheesecake is easily one of the best I’ve ever had, one bite and you will be in cheesecake heaven.
Really, there’s not much that you can go wrong with here, about the only issue I have with them is that they are pretty far from home and close at 6pm, and odds are there will be a line. Don’t come here hungry, because you WILL buy too much, and it’s not super cheap.
Belle Sucre is amazing, it’s not just ‘El Paso good,’ I’ve brought visitors from Austin, LA and San Francisco here without any caveats, it truly holds its own against the great dessert places across the country.
