So. You probably already know that Seattle's Le Rêve Bakery is a sweet spot to pick up buttery Kouign Amann, croissants, and/or cloudlike macarons. In fact, I'd even deem it worth walking up Queen Anne hill (and to those who know this hill, this is very high praise).
But they're not just good bakers: they also have extremely good taste in art, as evidenced by the recent request of one of the owners that I create this custom piece, as a birthday surprise, for her co-owner! It features sweet treats (inspired by items on their menu) hanging outside of their bakery.
And then, upon receiving the finished artwork, she was so impressed that she commissioned a second one--for herself!
Now, if that's not a sweet story, I don't know what is.
Visit Le Rêve at 1805 Queen Anne Ave. N, Seattle; online here.
