Debailleul is an elegant café and patisserie that has recently opened in Worli. Debailleul (pronounced dey-bai-you), started in Belgium almost 20 years ago and they pride themselves for their products which are ‘discreetly arrogant and unique”. They are supposedly the finest Belgian “Chocolatier, Patiessier and Glacier.” Karen D’Souza, who has the franchise for this outlet in Mumbai, told us, that all the products sold here, are imported “as is” from Belgium. She affirms, that this is one place where “fashion meets taste”, and most of what is available here bears testimony to that.
Their chocolates are available as tablette or bars, as well as single pieces beautifully packaged in the choicest of boxes. The fine detailing on the chocolates and the boxes make them a work of art, and they are ideal for gifting. The cocoa that Debailleul uses, is sourced from South America and is of the highest quality. There is a wide variety of chocolates to choose from. They have dark chocolate, white chocolate, truffles, ganaches, pralines, caramel and vanilla fillings and so much more. It is also possible to buy just a single piece of chocolate (Rs 95). Their tasty macaroons are available in four different flavors and can also be boxed elegantly as gifts.
Debailleul is best known for their delicious cakes and tartlets. They have four types of tarts, lemon, chocolate, ganache and raspberry. The raspberry tart (Rs 380), is a scrumptious blend of almond, pastry and crème brulee, topped with the choicest red raspberries…heavenly! Both their tarts and chocolates are available in single servings and larger ones for 6 to 8 servings. The chocolate “Voltaire”, (Rs. 500), is an experience in itself. It is a wonderful blend of mousse, rice crispies, crème brulee and chocolate ganache…just divine!. They also make an excellent tiramisu and black forest cake. All these cakes are very aesthetically presented so that design and cake come together beautifully.
Debailleul also serves the finest of breakfast breads like croissants and brioches. These are served with fine coffees, teas and fresh juices. However, their signature drink has to be their hot chocolate (Rs. 150), which is just plain melted chocolate with a bit of milk. It is sinfully yummy! Their ice-creams and sorbets come in amazing flavors like passion fruit, black currant, raspberry and even mango and are available in single or large tubs. These are also imported from Belgium. Eating here is truly a unique experience, so what are you waiting for!
