Here’s How La Patisserie Francaise Got Started… 

The story behind our bakery La Patisserie Franacis begins with Alice Nguyen; who grew up in a small mountain town of Dat Lat, Vietnam in 1961. As the third generation of family bakers, Alice began her cooking journey in Annecy, France. There she  developed the love of cooking and french pastry making. Alice was fortunate to enroll into culinary school. There she crafted her passion of pastry and culinary cooking skills. With the help of her extended family, Alice was fortunate to open a small bakery in the United States to help spread her passion for cooking into a business.
