Absolutely delicious and spectacular looking desserts, macaroons and chocolates!! Everything made in the shop from scratch, no chemicals, no preservatives, best quality ingredients, all very fresh. Come and enjoy the cozy atmosphere, friendly stuff and delicious pastries melting in your mouth.
Absolutely wonderful coffee house in Vancouver! As if we visited Paris in France, but the taste of cakes is just unique and deserves all praise! I never tried such delicious cakes in Paris! Bravo chef, Elena Chernova, BRAVO! We certainly recommend to all your friends certainly visit Mon Paris Patisserie in Metrotown.
Excellent class, Chef Elena knows her stuff. The cakes we made were beautiful just like the ones she sells in her shop. Depending on your experience in the kitchen, she will work with you and give you guidance to learn hands on. We found the class well organized and all your ingredients are prepped and ready to go. We learned some great tips to improve on our baking and pastry skills. Our family enjoyed eating the delicious mousse cakes!
I've been a fan of chef Elena Krasnova's work for a while (followed her on Instagram), so when we learned that her pastry shop was only 20 minutes away from the conference that we were attending, we decided that a visit there was a must. I'm happy to report that this place is just wonderful. The interior is beautiful, light and stylish (loved the tea cups!!), the pastries were abundant, fresh and delicious. My friend had an oversized raspberry-pistachio macaron which she described as 'heavenly', and I had a pistachio turnover that was absolutely fantastic: not overly sweet, flaky, simply delicious. We also shared a сanelé which tasted exactly like those I had in Paris. I wish we lived closer to this little gem. Highly recommended.
A great local family business with delicious desserts! Please consider supporting them as it's still a relatively new business. I believe in supporting local businesses and if you do too, come on over to taste and see for yourself!
My daughter and I visit here on a weekly basis. Everything and anything you purchase here is always fresh, authentic and delicious. Being French myself, finally finding an authentic Parisian bakery makes my wallet a lot smaller but my heart & stomach so full. Absolutely love this place!
Elena is very talented and above all creative pastry chef...you always find new things here....must visit place......
Very Good. Elena has great knowledge and shares her expertise with you. I am munching on the goodies learned from the lamination course. They are superb!!!!

Unbelievable deserts and lovely people work here, Love love love the incredible designs
Recently, there are a lot of new cafes and dessert places opened in Burnaby, and one of my favorite would be Mon Paris Patisserie. It has a very classy and simple interior design. As soon as you step in the store, you can smell the aroma of chocolate. The pastries and sweets are displayed beautifully, and what always caught my attention are the bonbons!
I was quite excited when Mon Paris opened up in Burnaby. I was following them on Instagram and the cakes were just beautiful! I also love that it’s near the Metrotown Skytrain station, which means easy access from Coquitlam or downtown. I took my mom there, who also loves some good pastries.
This is a relatively new bakery that offers some really gorgeous-looking cakes and tarts, as well as chocolates and croissants. So far, I've had the chance to try their Russian Honey, Pistachio Turnover, and Opera (see below for details on each). Although nothing completely blew me away, I did enjoy all the desserts, especially the Russian Honey. Although their prices are a tad on the higher side, everything seems to be made with great ingredients and attention to detail, so I think that it's worthwhile. I really hope that this place does well; I'd love to come back to sample some of their other pretty desserts.
Russian Honey ($6)
4.5/5
This consisted of two thin layers of honey-flavoured cake sandwiching a layer of honey mousse and topped with a thick layer of vanilla mousse and whipped cream. Both layers of mousse were smooth and creamy, and sublty sweet. The cake and mousse both had a good assertive honey flavour, which I really liked. The whipped cream topping was fresh and sweet, and speckled with bits of vanilla.
Pistachio Turnover ($3.5)
3/5
The dough was flaky and enjoyable enough, though it pales somewhat in comparison to other places like Beaucoup or Small Victory. Although there was a generous amount of pistachio filling present, I personally found the filling to be a bit on the bland side without any real distinctive flavour. Even though I did like this, it isn't really particularly memorable.
Opera ($6)
4/5
This consisted of a thick layer of coffee mousse sandwiched between two layers of coffee cake with a thinner layer of chocolate mousee topped with a bittersweet chocolate ganache. I was initially caught off guard by the flavour: the dessert wasn't sweet at all, but had a mild bitter taste. The dessert did grow on me however as I continued on eating. Once again, the layers of mousse were smooth and velvety, with great assertive chocolate and coffee flavours. Unfortunately, I didn't really enjoy the cake layers as much: they were bland and had a slightly rubbery texture. This is definitely something for those who enjoy coffee or prefer their desserts to be on the bittersweet side.
Best of bakery in Burnaby, hands down. I'm so grateful this shop opened near where I live, now I never need to go downtown or North Vancouver for some gourmet cakes, macaroons or chocolates when I want to spoil myself. The chocolates are beautifully decorated and very very delicious. Wonderful to give away as gifts too! The macaroons are great, though some of the flavours are a bit sweet for me, I can eat the salted caramel one all day. Can't wait to go back 🤗!
