About
Ben's Patisserie is a small, much-loved family business bringing authentic French pastry to Murwillumbah. Owner Ben, originally from Nice, handcrafts everything on site — croissants (plain, almond, chocolate and filled), Parisian macarons, eclairs, mille-feuille, custard flan, lemon meringue, pear tart and more — made fresh from scratch.
His macarons have taken multiple awards at the Sydney Royal Easter Show, and on Fridays and Saturdays Ben also bakes sourdough bread available to pre-order and collect from 7:30am. Run with his wife Steph, the patisserie is consistently rated among Murwillumbah's best, and takes catering and cake orders alongside the daily counter.
