Excellent cakes, too expensive for cakes but excellent otherwise, they are beautiful to look at and they're super tasty.
An unexpected good spot for great ice cream.
Any one who puts this place under 5 stars is lost in a different world. Emotions has high quality, extraordinary delicious pastries and amazing ice cream!
Took the lemon pie to a dinner party. Inspite of many other choices at the dessert table, it received a lot of attention and disappeared within 5 minutes.
Very tasty and fresh cakes! Well packed.
The staff are very kind.
The place is well organised and clean.
This place is special among pastry shops the products there are top notch and establish a new standard for beirut's pastry shops
Lovely place, very fresh and simple decor and most importantly very welcoming people! Just tried their croissants and they tasted delicious and light! Also tasted the chocolate and vanilla eclairs, both very yummy😋especially the vanilla with the crunchy caramel! Definitely the ingredients are excellent and cant wait to try the different tarts which looked very appealing! Wish there was a list of cakes and tarts with prices to order from!
Best individual pieces of cakes in Beirut.. maybe the Middle East. The store is small, beautifully presented.. and the variety of cakes is just perfect. Wonderful as a gift better for self indulgence!
I travel from one province to another, within Lebanon, to get to EMOTIONS Artisan Patissier & Glacier. When I arrive, I know that Mr. Gaby Bustros will be there in the kitchen perfecting his creations. When I first saw the triangular tart, I was intrigued to try the constituents of this rebel among its mostly circular species. I was not disappointed. The tart with the mixture of berries is sublime; the freshness of the berries with their bed of creme patissiere complement each other perfectly. The crumble of the tart border is the ideal vessel to hold them in, while being delicate in itself. If you wish to satisfy your darker desires, you would need to venture into the underworld of the chocolate tart. It is quite the opposite of its berry friend; within the triangular crunch of a border, there is more chocolate awaiting inside. The different textures of chocolate come together in intense decadence; the biscuit meets the ganache and oozing goodness seeps through the top subtly cracked chocolate layer. Ok, it is time to leave the world of tarts, and showcase the Tahitian vanilla eclair. It is fragile and light, yet rich and creamy, and the hardened caramel threads wonderfully break underneath your teeth. I think this eclair might be my favorite piece, but then again why put pressure on myself to choose a favorite. One of the times I went to Emotions, I was lucky enough to taste a sample of a chocolate macaron in the making; the crust parted to reveal delicious chocolate filling inside. Now, let us proceed to the other section of delicacies at Emotions; their ice cream. I love how the flavors contained in the 1L transparent tubs are described with handwritten labels. The cubes are filled with ice cream made from the finest ingredients. The sorbet of berries has fruit tidbits in it, which make the flavor more pronounced and lets the freshness shine through. As for the coconut ice cream, it is also made from fresh coconut with a subtle hint of Malibu rum and a touch of toasted coconut shavings. Whether it is pastry or ice cream, Emotions really satisfies my sweet cravings. I can not wait to meet more of their flawless confections.
Update: I tried many more confections, and they were delicious. Take a look at the photographic evidence :)
Small is beautiful! Wonderful cakes and the best baba al rum you can have. Try their lemon cake too.
