1 . The Best Bakeries in Paris
Le Grenier à Pain152 Rue Oberkampf, Paris
Winner of the 2010 prize for Best Baguette in Paris, this famous bakery located in the heart of Montmartre is run by Michel Galloyer. The decoration is appealing, with the breads and cakes strikingly presented. The almond (杏仁) bread is amazing, and the chocolate pies are second-to-none. Breads are reasonably priced, while the chocolate pies are slightly above average, but in this instance, worth the extra cents.
Poilâne8 Rue du Cherche-Midi, Paris
Established by Pierre Poilane in 1932, this bakery has stood the test of time. Son Lionel continues to bake bread in the original wood-fired oven. Sourdough bread baked from stone-ground flour is a specialty here, as are delicate butter cookies. The unique online ordering system offers potential original gifts, or the chance to keep up your bread habit if your trip to Paris is temporary.
Maison Kayser14 Rue Monge, Paris
Three generations of Kaysers have established a number of bakeries across Paris, where they sell their unique variety of bread, comprising a mix of milk, hazelnuts and honey. The multigrain loaf has a notably light and fluffy (松软的) texture and makes for a perfect breakfast treat. Ready-made sandwiches and salads are a lunchtime feature at this Latin Quarter bakery.
Au 140140 Rue de Belleville, Paris
Au 140 counts a list of awards to its name. The official supplier to the presidential palace in2001, its baguette was named the best in Paris that same year.

10 . Among the self-flying planes, advanced electric cars, and model space stations on display at a collection of Chinese goods in Shanghai in May was a decidedly untechnical item of the past: White Rabbit creamy candies. This year the sweets turn 80.
Since the sweets appeared, the rabbit has reinvented itself many times. The most recent one was in November when it teamed up with a high-end American fashion firm. It produced giant rabbits on handbags costing up to7,500 yuan, as well as dresses, jackets, and a gold White-Rabbit necklace. For many of its followers, the milky taste recalls a childhood when few other treats were available. Tapping into nostalgia (怀旧之情) in the Chinese market, the cooperation enables White Rabbit to develop new followers across the Pacific.
China’s first domestic toffees (太妃糖) were produced in 1943 with Mickey Mouse on the wrapper. When such Americana fell out of favour in the 1950s, it was replaced by a big white rabbit, which gave the brand its name, Dabaitu. Soon, the stylized blue-and-white cartoon rabbit became popular. However, the fortunes of the sweet stopped in the 1970s. As foreign goods poured in, White Rabbit lost its domestic lead.
Then the rabbits fought back. In 2018 the first supplies of White Rabbitlip balm (润唇膏) sold out within hours. The following year, the producer teamed up with Godiva, a chocolate company, to make White Rabbit ice cream. And people lined up for hours to buy the newly launched White Rabbit milk tea at a pop-up shop in Shanghai. Besides traditional candies, the company has since launched perfumes, body wash and hand cream. In 2021, the company opened a shop in Shanghai selling all manner of branded products.
White Rabbit’s cooperation with luxury brands received a boost this year from the arrival of the Year of the Rabbit. The sweet maker has taken full advantage of “guochao”, a phrase meaning “national wave”. It refers to the fashion that Chinese-made goods inspire the nostalgia and national pride among the young.

| B．It reminds people of their childhood memories. |
