On Boulevard Chave, a new spot is drawing in lovers of refined sweets. Whether you dine in or take out, stop by to savor the moment and their delicious creations. With delicate pastries, carefully selected teas, and a charming secret patio, Ma Douce cultivates the art of the gourmet break. A must-visit for anyone with a sweet tooth looking for homemade treats.
A sweet escape in the heart of Boulevard Chave
Behind this charming façade lie Aurélie and Antoine. This passionate couple has created a space that reflects their personality: elegant, warm, and deeply welcoming. From the moment you step inside, the atmosphere invites you to relax, whether you have just a few minutes or several hours to spare.
While the display case draws the eye with its impeccably crafted pastries, the real surprise lies in the back. There you’ll find a bright, green terrace—a true haven of peace away from the hustle and bustle of Marseille. A true sanctuary to enjoy a cup of tea or a pastry when the warm weather arrives. Pastry shop, tea room, and café come together here in a gentle, contemporary atmosphere. The creations can be enjoyed on-site or taken to go to savor the treats elsewhere.
Homemade pastries with bold flavor combinations
At Ma Douce, the pastries are all aboutbalance. Less sweet, they focus more on textures and the precision of flavors. Each creation reveals a true mastery of gourmet pairings.
Among the must-try treats, it’s hard to pass up the perfectly balanced lemon meringue tart . Or will you be tempted by the distinctive charm of the Trianon?
And for those who love reimagined desserts, the Tirami Chou is one of those creations that intrigues as much as it delights. One thing is certain: the menu evolves with the seasons, always giving you a good reason to come back and discover what’s new.
Food and tea pairings, the house specialty
More than just a tea room, Ma Douce offers a true experience centered on the pairing of pastries and teas. An original approach developed in collaboration with Maison Luciole.
Green tea, black tea, rooibos, or herbal tea: each beverage is chosen to complement a specific creation and bring out all its nuances.
At lunchtime, a few savory options round out the menu to extend this moment of relaxation. An ideal spot for a gourmet break, an afternoon snack in the sun, or an impromptu coffee in one of Marseille’s liveliest neighborhoods.
