Sweets News

Today's Sweets News focuses on treats both French and Japanese.
  • Le Moulin A Cafe. The former La Mediterrannee has transformed itself into a French bakery, complete with macarons, pains au chocolat, and shelves full of imported French butter cookies. I stopped by there today for a croissant and a La Colombe cafe au lait. Only downside: the place refuses credit cards for purchases under $10. (1439 York Ave., 212-288-5088.)
  • KAI Sweets. I am so excited about a present of artisanal Japanese puddings I received from a friend who visited KAI Sweets at Mitsuwa Marketplace. The little glass jars contain flavors like sweet black sesame. When I run out, I'll make a trip out to New Jersey to replace them. (Mitsuwa Marketplace, 595 River Road, Edgewater, NJ, 201-840-4050.)
