With sweets almost too pretty to eat, Amorette’s Patisserie showcases the beautiful work of Walt Disney World Resort pastry chefs in a new shop at Disney Springs.

Just like many of the new areas coming to Disney Springs, Amorette’s Patisserie also has a story to tell. Established as one of the first shops in Town Center (circa 1900s) and passed down through the generations, the patisserie is currently owned by artistic sisters Kara and Sara, where they pour great care into designing and creating the most unique and artistic pastries. In fact, “Amorette” means “little love” in French.

Classic and contemporary cakes and pastries are the stars in this high-end pastry shop where guests can watch pastry chefs decorate signature cakes in the on-stage finishing kitchen. Even the beautiful boutique-style packaging, inspired by old-fashioned hatboxes, lends to the sophisticated feel of the location.

Oh, those sweets! From a classic macaron or crisp, light pavlova to the ultimate chocolate-chocolate chunk cookie, Amorette’s is a dessert lover’s dream come true.

There’s something for everyone: eclairs, New York-style cheesecake, opera cake and sacher torte. Special sweets have names like “Reflection in Memphis” (peanut blondie with bacon, banana and chocolate) and Strawberry Fields of OC (strawberry mousse with basil sugar and lemon curd). Amorette’s Signature Cake is beautifully decorated, with 10 layers of delectable flavors and textures. You’ll want to take a photo before you dig in; these are edibles that only a talented pastry artist could create. And, yes, there’s gluten friendly cakes on the menu.

Amorette’s features a few delectable beverage options as well. Sip a Champagne or sparkling wine with your pastry, or go straight for the indulgent Amorette’s Hot Chocolate Ganache, a cupful of sippable chocolate with Chantilly and shaved dark chocolate on top. You also can opt for a glass of cold milk, coffee or tea.

We say, eat dessert first! Amorette’s Patisserie will open on May 15 with the rest of Town Center, and beginning May 22, you can pre-order Amorette’s Patisserie cakes by calling 407-934-3500 with 72 business hours advance notice.
