"Although known primarily for his superlative breads, Eric Kayser produces some terrific chocolate pastries, including an unusual chocolate financier: tiny buttons of cake, rich with ground almonds and lots of dark chocolate, one of my favorite goûtes in Paris."

Chris Cockren

"I was a big fan of Eric Kayser’s artisanal offerings while in Paris: the financiers as well as a smattering of other tarts and pastries always satisfied my sweet tooth cravings."

Gabriella Gershenson

"One of the best I've tasted is this fine-crumbed version from Paris baker Eric Kayser, which he makes in several flavors, including the especially excellent, nut-rich pistachio; it melts in the mouth, a quiet luxury as indelible as any madeleine."

Emily Grossi

"Financiers, a cakey concoction usually shaped like a rectangle, can, like any baked good, be dry and totally underwhelming. These financiers were precisely the opposite. I wanted to cry and immediately go buy 82 more."

Joy Huang

"They're just one or two bites each and less sweet than a cupcake, more substantial than a muffin. Perfect for packing and eating on the go without having to worry about getting a crazy sugar rush."

Daisy Caroline

"These financier are mini version, so they are really tiny. They were great to be enjoyed with coffee or tea as light snack, the taste was like butter cookies and not too sweet."
