The pastries are delicious, yet the service is just ok. Go for the original ones, the brownies (in the picture) were just fine.

This is the original (and still the best) bakery that made these puff pastries stuffed with vanilla whipped cream. They are named after the biggest sand dunes in France which are 1 hour from Bordeaux in Arcachon, a gorgeous and famous beach town.

Just one of my best pastries. You can find them in the shops of Bordeaux and Arcachon. As a guide I always try to have a stop with my guests to try this delicious profiteroles

I recently tried Dunes Blanches, the signature pastry of Arcachon. The shop presents these pastries in a very unique style, which is certainly part of the local charm. They are essentially soft choux balls generously filled with cream, offered in different flavors. While I appreciate the originality and the popularity of this specialty, for my personal taste they were a bit too creamy. It is definitely worth trying once to experience this local creation, but I wouldn’t consider it a pastry I would return to regularly.

A must-go for dessert lovers. Puffy, light, delicious freshly baked choux. Can have a queue during weekends. Totally worth it.

One of the 3 most famous desserts in Bordeaux Cosmopolitan. Taste so light and fresh. 👍

Holy moly these are amazing. Taste like little balls of heaven. The cream is subtle, the pastry just so soft with these crunchy bits sprinkled on top. Wish I bought more than 6!

A bit expensive, but worth it. Delicous local treat.
