Bien Cuit bakery has opened a new Brooklyn branch, and it’s introducing some innovative items in this store. Canelés — the well-burnished little molded cakes from Bordeaux, in flavors like coconut green tea, espresso and bergamot — are new here, as are craquelins, made from choux paste, with a sugar crust and pumpkin-miso cream inside. Other seasonal items also include apple-frangipane tarts, rum-raisin poundcake and Danish, with a butternut squash and praline filling.
Bien Cuit, 721 Franklin Avenue (Park Place), Crown Heights, Brooklyn, biencuit.com.
