Hugues Pouget
Former Hugo & Victor relaunched under the chef's name, 2003 French Dessert Champion's first eponymous boutique
Reviewed by Mes Prestiges Editorial Team Last reviewed May 2026
Hugues Pouget was Guy Savoy's pastry chef before he co-founded Hugo & Victor in 2010 and rewrote the chef-led Left Bank patisserie template. In November 2025 he closed the original Raspail address and reopened two streets away on rue du Cherche-Midi under his own name, the same precision with rebalanced sugar, signature spherical fruit cakes, and a viennoiserie programme. The 2003 French Dessert Champion and World Pastry Cup competitor cooks for an audience that knows the difference between technique and trompe-l'oeil. Near the Bon Marché, ten minutes from Saint-Sulpice. The post-shopping boxed-pastry-home stop, and the chef-quality croissant before a 6e gallery morning.
Editor's Tip
Open since 28 November 2025, the old Hugo & Victor sphere cakes are back under the new branding. Order the spherical fruit cake and a kouign-amann; the savoury pâté en croûte at lunch is a quiet move.
