Story

The story of Douceurs d’Ailleurs finds its roots in my childhood memories, between the everyday life challenges, studies and my first sweet experiences.

Since I was a child, I was fascinated by my mother who prepared “banana cake” every day to make ends meet; from there was born my passion for baking.

On each occasion, I found myself by her side trying to memorize her gestures and subsequently the recipe. These intimate moments were for me a real school of life, where patience, precision and love were the main ingredients.

Over the years, this passion has transformed into a real art. Each new recipe was an adventure, a challenge to be taken up with creativity and determination despite obstacles and failures.

Beyond these experiences, I dreamed of transforming my passion into a profession, in order to share it with as many people as possible, to create a place where everyone could discover this love of baking in a welcoming, inspiring and warm setting. A dream that burned inside me, patiently waiting for its moment to blossom.

This moment came when my dear husband, who had always been my greatest support, saw this flame shine in my eyes and understood that it was time to turn this dream into reality.

The days turned into weeks, the weeks into months, and every free moment was devoted to planning and preparing the long-awaited tea room.

After months of hard work, the big day finally arrived, the cherished dream came true. Douceurs d’Ailleurs opens its doors; the place where gluttony combines with the simple joy of sharing a special moment with friends, family or alone; a refuge for gourmet souls in search of sweetness and authenticity.

It is the beginning of a new adventure, one where each day is a new page to write, a new recipe to invent, a new sweetness to offer and share.

But the best motivation is to know that you are supported, both during the ups and downs, and I am proud and grateful to have my husband and my four beautiful children by my side, always ready to support me and share this extraordinary adventure.

Looking forward to welcoming you and delighting your taste buds.

With all my sweetness,

Jessy. R
