La Pâtisserie Rococo (EN)

Welcome to France during the reign of King Louis XV. As a grand festival approaches in the lavish gardens of Versailles, the kingdom’s finest pâtissiers are summoned to impress the nobility. In La Pâtisserie Rococo, players take on the role of ambitious pastry shop owners, managing chefs, apprentices and resources to craft elegant desserts worthy of royal praise. Every turn presents meaningful choices: hire skilled staff, acquire premium ingredients, master new recipes and decide whether to sell pastries for profit or present them to noble judges for prestige.

Featuring up to nine optional actions per turn, the game offers deep strategic planning and multiple paths to victory. Players can enhance their creations with decorative flair, use servers to elevate presentations or appoint noble hosts to gain additional prestige. Building upon the acclaimed card-based system from Rococo, La Pâtisserie Rococo delivers a rich, replayable experience for solo and multiplayer sessions alike. It is a strategy game, an economic management game and an expert-level board game set in a beautifully realized culinary theme.

You will enjoy La Pâtisserie Rococo if you love deep strategy games, resource management and immersive historical settings with meaningful long-term planning.

Interesting fact: La Pâtisserie Rococo is designed by Louis and Stefan Malz, the creators of Rococo, and reimagines their iconic mechanics in a luxurious pastry-themed setting.
