Le Chat Noir – Cupcake Bordello and Bakery

Dang, I really wanted to like this place. Got the Bottled Blonde cupcake and the frosting was good once you really tried to taste it, but it was just really oily. The cake part was nothing stellar. Maybe just average.
Macarons: I got rose, lavender, and candy cane. All of them were burnt or hard and the filling was also very oily and melt-​y.
The best thing was the Pumpkin Spice Bordello Bite. And that was too sweet. :(
On a different note, I love how tiny the place is. I had to park to see it but I kept driving right past it with my GPS.

This little space is tucked away in a larger building, they have a window that faces the outside though so you can visually see where to go inside. We stopped in for my SO’s birthday and he got a decadent chocolate cupcake with a marshmallow frosting. I chose pumpkin spice and almond macaroons, delightful. Every cupcake they had sounded amazing, they had a dozen or so flavors to choose from (+ macaroons). I recommend if you’re having lunch in the Magnolia area, stop here for dessert. Check their hours, but they close at 6pm most days (maybe get dessert before dinner?)

Super tasty and friendly service, I will definitely be back to enjoy more from this local gem.

The buxom blonde was the best vanilla cupcake I have ever had. Not too sweet, and the icing was very buttery. Clearly all natural ingredients. You can taste the difference. Amazing!

I ordered the cupcake bouquet as a birthday gift. My cousin loved it and so did her co-​workers. The bouquet was like a work of art and looked like a real flower. In addition to being beautiful the cupcakes were delicious. I plan on making Patti my premier baker for all occasions in the DFW area. Thank you again for your attention to detail and for being apart of our celebration.

Lovely little shop on Magnolia. I can really see where she is going here, but the macs need a little work.
We got the dulce de leche and the red velvet macs. Both had good flavor, but the cookie was dry and not chewy as I usually like. The cupcakes looked delish.

Great cute little store. Actually, it’s more like a «room», but that’s part of its charm.
I thought cupcakes were a thing in the past but who knows? Maybe it’s making a comeback. I’m not a cupcakes fan myself, but my wife and I are huge macarons fan. Our favorite is from a shop that imports them from France and we compare every macaron to theirs. So, that’s what drew me in. I was in a good mood today so I decided to buy some to surprise her.
The cupcakes were 3.5 each and macarons were 2 each. The macarons were good-​sized and the flavors were amazingly intense. I loved the fillings. Not too sweet and lots of it. The texture wasn’t perfect (a bit too crumbly and it didn’t have that smooth shininess) but I think I can overlook it because the fillings were that good.
Overall, the cupcakes were good too. Certainly very nicely decorated (see pic). They weren’t just a blob of boring cream cheese swirly icing. We tried the Bottle Blonde (rich chocolate cake with vanilla bean Swiss meringue buttercream) and the Sugar Momma (white chocolate raspberry cake with white chocolate ganache buttercream). The cakes were moist and flavorful. The bottle blonde buttercream tasted kinda bland. I couldn’t taste any vanilla or sugar. It felt like I was just eating whipped butter. On the other hand, the sugar momma buttercream was delicious, but a little too sweet.
At the end of the day, I still enjoyed every item purchased. It was a true ⁴⁄₅ experience. I would certainly be happy to visit again to try some other flavors.

«Seek and you will find» This is a tiny shop that you really must find!!!
Fabulous! Creative! Beautiful! The pastries remind me of some I have eaten in the tiny pasty shops in Paris. Macaroons in specialty flavors. Darlingly delusions cupcakes. Very customer service oriented. There was a glitch in our pickup schedules and she personally delivered a large pasty order to my home.

I love this place! The cupcakes are amazing. But my absolute favorite are the macarons! You will want to make sure to stock up on those tasty little things. You can tell that they use the best ingredients possible and take pride in what they do. I highly recommend this place!

Simply put, this place is UNBELIEVABLY AMAZING!!!
The macarons are, hands down, the best I’ve ever had but the cupcakes are my favorite! The cake is moist and light and there is always just the perfect amount of creamy, whipped frosting that melts in your mouth and never overpowers the cake. They are not too rich nor are they too sweet.
My other favorite is the Dulce de Leche brownies. These are just WOW!!! The way the caramel compliments the brownie — and you can taste the milk even with the chocolate and caramel — these are what heaven must taste like.
I have never had anything from this bakery that wasn’t the best I’ve ever had. If you are looking for the best bakery in Texas, here it is.

I had some truly awesome cupcakes from Le Chat Noir for my birthday. They were delicious. Instead of the current trend of stacking 1 pound of frosting on a single cupcake. These were perfectly proportioned and the «Cake» of the cupcake was as delicious as the frosting.
Much care was taken to ensure the flavors complimented each other instead of competing.
I am going to be a return customer, many times.

This is a great local community bakery. The Macaroons are probably some of the best I’ve ever had! I had a cupcake at Open streets too and it was pretty dang goood.
