Creme de la Creme offers delicious desserts like Creme brulee and pistachio version. This charming French-style pastry shop, located in the high-end Sawmill Market food hall, is known for its decadent desserts and excellent service. The knowledgeable staff provides guidance on menu items and explains the use of fresh ingredients. The presentation of the desserts is exquisite, with rose petals and flower petals adding a special touch that makes them incredibly Instagram worthy. The pastries are described as art pieces, with fresh crusts and moist fillings. Highlights include the chocolate mousse for its rich flavor and silky texture, as well as the cronut, a croissant and doughnut hybrid that is baked rather than fried. The blueberry lavender cannoli is also praised for its flavorful creme. Overall, this restaurant is highly recommended for its unique and high-quality desserts, along with friendly staff, and is a must-see for anyone in Albuquerque.

I should have gotten a couple more croissants because the one I got was delicious and unlike anything I’ve ever tasted. I can’t wait to return.

This place is so cute and charming. Excellent service and the most decadent desserts. Don’t get me started on the crème croissant. Delicious, filling, and beautiful. 100 stars to this place. A must see if you are in Albuquerque!
