decadent vegan treat

I went there recently for my birthday to have some of their cupcakes. One vanilla and red velvet and a chai soy tea. The cupcakes were delicious but the tea just tasted like soy milk. The only con that some vegans may contend with is that they use white sugar...I didn't know until after I already ate them. They said their white sugar in France doesn't contain animal bone...but either way, if you are trying to avoid white sugar, heads up.

Pros: great atmosphere , delicious cup cakes

Cons: using white sugar

Tasty cupcakes

We had the lemon- blueberry cupcakes and they were great. We visited on a sunday afternoon so the cake selection was rather small.

Fantastic brunch and where to find it

Me and my boyfriend stopped by cloud cakes for brunch on our visit to Paris. We ordered the complete thing - croissant, latte, juice, pancakes and an enormous wrap/tortilla kind of thing. Honestly, it was amazing. We'd been looking for vegan croissants the entire trip, and once we got to taste this... it was heaven. Everything was perfect, down to the coffee and freshly squeezed orange juice. Will definitely be back for more!

Pros: Food, Service, Ambience

Cons: A bit pricey (but then again, all of Paris is)

Heaven for Vegans

My spouse and I have been vegan for 26 and 27 years respectively and we love to have vegan food holidays. If you are vegan, Cloud Cakes is a must. The croissants are spectacularly delicious.so good in fact that my spouse and I ate four. And that was just the beginning of our delightful food adventure. But think about it, vegan croissants that easily rival traditional ones.if you are vegan you know how rare it is to find a vegan croissant , then I had vegan cheesecake and it was amazing. It is the traditional European version, that is also hard to find vegan, my spouse had pancakes with whip cream. The whip cream was to die for. And lastly he had cream cheese and strawberry toast. Yummy. As you can see, we eat a lot. We will definitely go back to eat and eat and eat, do not miss this place on your food holiday!

Pros: Fabulous Food , Vegan Croissants , Friendly and wonderful staff

Croissant

When you are in France, you have to try a croissant. That's how we ended up here. We were more excited about the pain au chocolat, which unfortunately wasn't available the day we went. The croissant was nice, you couldn't tell it was vegan. A bit more expensive than a "normal croissant". The other bakery goods looked very nice too though, but we didn't try them.

Pros: All vegan, Food looked very nice

Cons: Good but not amazing

Great coffee and cake place

A small vegan cafe with excellent cakes and great coffee. We had the carrot cake and two cupcakes and cappuccino. Everything was fresh and very tasty. The staff (Amélie) was very kind. Highly recommended. Only regret: The room is quite small and is often crowded.

Pros: Delicious cakes, Kind staff, everything vegan

Cons: limited space

Amazing Croissants

I deliberately worked this place in to my trip while I was in Paris because I so wanted to try their croissants and it was completely worth it! I wish I'd bought a couple more to take away! I had been hoping to try the cake as well but I was there pretty early in the day and the only cakes out were covered in whipped cream and not very appealing to me. Equally because it was quite early the service was quite slow, but not so bad it detracted from the product. Would definitely go again if I was in Paris, and possibly drag other people along with me!

Pros: Amazing croissants , Convenient location , Friendly

Cons: Slow coffee

Yum but get there early!

Cute cafe just off the Main Street. There was about 5 cakes and 5 cupcake flavours in the cabinet but the croissants had sold out. We had a cake and cupcake and both were delicious.

Pros: delicious

Cons: not much by the end of the day

Delicious cupcakes and croissants

These croissants are the best I ever had. The cupcakes are so delicious, the chocolate is my favourite. The cakes not so much but good too.
A little small place but that is kind of normal in central Paris.

Pros: Delicious cupcakes, Delicious croissants

Cons: Staff could be a bit more friendly

Very good and cozy vegan coffee-shop

I was lucky enough to find a seat right away at this tiny, cozy coffee-shop because I went there on a Friday afternoon. I loved the atmosphere: very quiet, decorated with taste and with a really homely feeling. I had a red velvet cupcake and a matcha latte, and my boyfriend had a slice of chocolate cake. Everything was a bit overpriced (we paid 17,50€ for two cakes and two drinks) but not more so than average Parisian coffee-shops or even Starbucks, and at Cloud Cakes the food is really, really good so I didn't mind the prices too much. I'll definitely come back to taste something else!

Fantastic coffee shop! Amazing cakes and croissants

Cloud cakes is a vegan heaven for cakes and croissants lovers. I've been there several times and I've never been disappointed. Their croissants are amazing and remind me those of good French traditionnal bakeries. Their Forêt noire is just perfect and their pies and cupcakes very flavourful. You have a nice choice in terms of hot drinks and the place is calm and pleasant. One of my favorite places in Paris. I'm really looking forward to try their brunch.

Pros: everything is fantastic here, central location, fair prices

Sweet Experience!

I popped in for a sweet and was not disappointed. The gentleman behind the counter helped me pick out a cupcake and it was moist, dense, flavorful, and sweet! I enjoyed it inside the cafe before I went on my way.

Pros: Convenient to museums

what a find!!

Loved this place. Today it's pouring outside, but it's warm and cozy in here. The turmeric latte is a must! Cupcake was delicious, and I'm waiting for the next batch of croissants to come out of the oven.

So good!

I came here with my boyfriend for breakfast while we were in Paris. We both got a croissant and a muffin and they were so good and just what we needed after a long trip to Paris! We found out that they had only been open for 5 days when we went and we couldn't stop thinking about how fortunate we were that they were open when we got there because we would have missed out! They do speak English there and their food is incredible! Happy vegans!

Pros: Amazing food, Good selections, English is spoken

Cons: none!

Could be improved

I tried a hot chocolate which was much too salty to my taste.
The chocolate cupcake was quite good because the frosting was perfect, but the cake itself could be improved (I found it a bit dry).
As much as I want to put it a better rating, I'll be honest and give it 3 stars.
Maybe next time will be better!

Pros: Vegan croissants, Vegan cake, Cute

Cons: Salty hot chocolate

Hello Hungy Monster,
Thank you for your honesty and advices. It is strange that the hot chocolat was salty... Perhaps a mistake when we made this one..!
We have now new pastries we hope you will enjoy ! :-))
See you,

sweet little spot

I really enjoyed stopping in here for vegan croissants and a vegan latte. Also tried their cappuccino. They have wi-fi and it's a cute little place to visit. Wish they were open on Mondays as I really wanted to return to try their other desserts and food and that was the only day I had.

Pros: vegan croissants, cute place

Cons: closed Mondays

Great cafe

This place is lovely, and would be a great place to spend a lazy afternoon. The cafe is in a beautiful pedestrian precinct, well-lit by full-height windows, and contains cosy seating including a couch in one corner.

The range of cakes looked very impressive; we tried a chocolate cupcake, which was delicious, and a croissant, which was freshly made and perfect - very impressive given how difficult it is to find vegan croissants in Paris. We were less impressed by the flan, which was a little bland, as was a hot chocolate.

I would definitely come here again, but it might take a few visits to figure out which menu items I like and which I don't.

Pros: Impressive and tasty selection of baked treats, Great location, Wifi

Hello Fievos,
Glad you enjoyed our coffee shop ! :-) The flan is no longer on the menu, we replaced it by delicious chantilly cakes : vanilla-raspberry and vanilla-apricot ! Plus muffins : chocolate peanut butter / red fruits / lemon with pavot seeds.
See you then, Fievos ! :D
