Honey Cake Patisserie

Honey Cake Patisserie operates as a family-owned establishment linked to the nearby Bistro My Way. Owner Charles Lebas, originally from Normandy, prepares most items on-site, drawing on classic French techniques. The signature honey cake draws inspiration from Eastern European layered varieties, featuring nutty textures and honey-infused elements.

The display case features an array of tarts, éclairs, Paris-Brest, and rum babas, alongside viennoiserie such as croissants, pain au chocolat, and pain aux raisins.

Fruit tartlets incorporate crisp pastry bases with custard fillings and fresh toppings. Gelato and sorbets emerge from small-batch production using natural ingredients only, offering flavours like salted caramel.

Savoury options include Breton galettes, crêpes, and panini, complemented by local sourdough bread. The patisserie also stocks regionally produced honey and preserves, adding to the selection of takeaway treats.

Custom orders for occasions form part of the service, with the team accommodating specific requirements where possible. Macarons come from a trusted local supplier, ensuring consistency across the range.

The interior provides a modest seating area for enjoying coffee alongside purchases. Feedback across platforms rates highly with many reviews, praising the quality comparable to French counterparts and the freshness of products.

Honey Cake Patisserie contributes authentic continental baking to Highcliffe’s high street, emphasising craftsmanship in every item produced.
