Sucré Table may be one of the best cafes in the entire city of Tampa. Beyond the ivy aesthetic and fragrance of fresh roasted coffee beans, this locally owned bakery and coffee shop is home to the very best desserts and pastries in the city. Renowned pastry chef Brenda Villacorta is behind the concept, and brings her passion for pastries to our ever growing community. The brick-and-mortar originally opened in 2020, and just a couple of years it has grown into a must visit destination for foodies in the area.
Spellbinding desserts on its rotating menu have included Sucré’s version of Strawberry Shortcake, a picture perfect blend of Japanese cheese cake, with creme brulee, and strawberry champagne jelee. Villacorta recently pushed her transfixing, flakey and savory pistachio croissant. Mango cheesecake, lavender blackberry rose cupcakes, and Galette des Rois have all featured on the menu, too.
