Macarons near Burbank, CA

“This was my first time at Artelis Patisserie, and I came in without knowing what to order. I asked for recommendations, and the person at the counter was genuinely passionate and took the time to walk me through their pastries and macarons — which I really appreciated.

I’m usually skeptical of French pastries in LA, but I trusted the recommendation and ordered Lé Peanut. It was beautifully executed and very well balanced — not overly sweet, with clearly defined layers. The tempered chocolate finish was done properly: glossy, crisp, and clean.

I also tried the Napoleon, and it was excellent. The puff pastry was caramelized, crisp, and not soggy, with a rich vanilla flavor that felt intentional rather than sugary.

I picked up two macarons as well, and they were surprisingly good — crisp shells, soft interior, and well-made fillings. The milk chocolate Earl Grey had a clear tea note, and the milk chocolate passion fruit was a great sweet-and-tart combination.

Everything I tried showed real technique and care. Beautiful packaging, warm service, and clearly a place that takes pastry seriously. I’ll definitely be back.“

“So glad I finally stopped by.

I tried a few things and everything was great. They have a few seats inside and offer coffee, hot chocolate, and other drinks. The hot chocolate wasn’t too sweet, which I really appreciated.

The croissant was very crispy with great flavor. I also tried the éclair au chocolat and a slice of galette des rois—both were a great discovery. Everything tasted really good and very close to what you’d find in France, which is exactly what I’ve been looking for.

I’ll definitely be back to try more pastries, and for sure another éclair au chocolat.“

“Delish! And if you get there early no long lines!“
