Patisserie vs Boulangerie A boulangerie is a French bakery selling everyday items like bread and croissants, commonly found even in the smallest towns. It's hard to walk down a French street without spotting several. In contrast, a patisserie specializes in desserts and sweet treats for special occasions. In France, patisserie is considered an art form, and becoming a master pastry chef, or maître pâtissier, requires a diploma and years of experience.
