Paris Baguette has introduced a seasonal 'Salted Caramel Pretzel' lineup, expanding its café offerings with a cohesive menu consisting of pastries and beverages that emphasize the balance of sweet and salty flavors.
Designed specifically for the winter season, the collection integrates salted caramel and pretzel elements across multiple formats, reflecting current consumer flavor preferences while remaining consistent with the brand’s bakery-café positioning.
Available for a limited time through March 3, the lineup includes a variety of baked goods, such as a croissant crisp topped with salted caramel and pretzel pieces, a supreme croissant filled with pastry cream, a custard-filled 'King Cream Donut' finished with caramel and pretzels, and a tart layered with salted caramel in a buttery shell. Complementing the pastries, the beverage offerings include a salted caramel pretzel latte, cold brew, and matcha latte. Collectively, these items provide a unified seasonal menu intended to enhance the winter café experience.
