More About Difference Between a Patisserie and Boulangerie
The French have two different words for bakeries: patisserie and boulangerie. Like in America, the categorical definition is important for reputation; you don’t want to open a coffee shop with no coffee. Since the French are very clear about this distinction, let’s look at what makes these two establishments different.
A patisserie is focused on the making and selling of pastries. It is actually illegal to claim you are a patisserie without a license in France! Not to mention this license is reserved for maître pâtissier (master pastry chefs) who have done the hard work to obtain that certification. A boulangerie is mainly focused on baking bread, with less importance placed on pastries.
Many people with aspirations to own their own patisserie or boulangerie might find this information useful. It is important to walk the walk in this case.
