The Best Dessert Shops You Should Visit In Brussels

Aux Merveilleux de Fred

Hand-sized or to share, the sweets served at Merveilleux de Fred are as beautiful as they are good, and especially light, an impressive feat seeing as a Merveilleux is basically made of cream, meringue and chocolate chips. Classic or available in different flavors, the names themselves are irresistible, such as l’Incroyable (meringue, speculoos whipped cream and white chocolate chip), or le Magnifique (meringue, praline whipped crème, caramelized almond and hazelnut chips). These merveilleux are ready to be eaten while walking near the Grand Place of Brussels.

God Save The Cream

Carrot cake with maple syrup icing, raspberry cheesecake and decadent chocolate fudge – this is only the tip of the iceberg in terms of options at God Save The Cream. This is the place to indulge your British side after a shopping spree along Avenue Louise. God Save The Cream, Rue de Stassart 131, Brussels, Belgium, +32 2 503 07 75

For four or eight guests, each pie creation at this workshop boutique is a tasty mix of tradition (e.g. chocolate fondant) and modernity (e.g. Piña Colada 2.0). The tricky part will be choosing your treat and keeping this address a secret.
