The Latest--where to find our sweets!

Howdy folks and welcome to another installment of the Friandise Pastries Blog!

This week, let's take a moment to review all the new things going on at Friandise. We've settled in at Cordon's Ranch Market and we will be installing our pastry case this week. That's right--you'll be able to come down and grab some goodies to go!

Walnut Brownies, anyone?
We also have some new wholesale partners--which means more places for you to find our treats. We're happy to announce we now supply Classic Kirbycakes to Jumpcut Cafe in Studio City.
Great movie-themed coffeehouse now with Kirbycakes!
.
As of today, we begin our relationship with Downbeat Cafe in Echo Park, which is soon to be known as Echo Lake Coffee Co. For now our Kirbycakes will be available there, but keep your eyes open for more Friandise Goodies to be there!
Head down for Jazz Nite and a Kirbycake!


In the USC area? Soon when you go to La Taquiza on Figueroa you can get one of our cupcakes with your Mulita! La Taquiza will be providing special Friandise cupcake flavors. The Abuelita (honorable mention at the LA Cupcake Challenge 2011) will be available soon at La Taquiza along with the new Horchata Cupcake and Dulce de Leche Cupcake! How do you say "om nom nom" en EspaƱol?
Tacos y Mulitas y Friandise Cupcakes!

We're also very excited to begin providing desserts to The Federal Bar in North Hollywood. Ever had a Jumbo Kirbycake? How about an Elvis Pie? Get on down to The Federal and try one!
Perfect place for a night out in NoHo complete with dessert
Westwood folks--our cupcakes will be back at Boba Loca when UCLA is back in session. Don't worry, cupcakes shall return! In the meantime, the boba at Boba Loca is awesome! You can find them at 10946 Weyburn Ave, across from the Bruin theater.

That's not all...we will announce more places to get our desserts in the next couple of weeks. Be sure to stay updated by Liking our Facebook page and following us on Twitter! Want to see our goodies in your favorite local hangout? Let us know!

Till next week--stay sweet!

Summer is coming, are you ready to get your sweet on?


Summer is upon us once again. For bakeries this can be a very busy time as we enter what they call "high wedding season". At Friandise, that certainly fits the bill. Kirby has been booking weddings left and right. (Don't worry brides, she still has some room on the calender!)

Last month we had the pleasure to do some weddings at one of our favorite venues, The Oviatt Penthouse. It is a very unique venue in Downtown Los Angeles and we've gotten to create some equally unique cakes for it. Here are a couple we enjoyed working on recently:

Ah summer...it's a great time for any outdoor celebration. We had the pleasure of making some wonderful cakes and sweets for parties and gifts.

 Custom-decorated birthday cake

Custom-decorated baseball cakepops for Eastbound & Down

In closing, we'd like to share some good news:

We also had the joy of incorporating a move into our busy schedule. That's right, Friandise has a new home in La Crescenta, CA. We are now at the in-store bakery at Cordon's Ranch Market on Honolulu Avenue. In the coming weeks we'll be offering our petite sweets at Cordon's. You'll soon be able to stop in and shop for the best treats in town. In the meantime, we are taking special orders for cakes, cupcakes, macarons, cakepops, Kirbycakes* and more! Our menu is right here.


*What's a Kirbycake, you ask? Check back next week!
