If you’re in the American south, you’re bound to find yourself regaled with treats like banana pudding and apple pie.

Indulge in something beautiful, in an afternoon rich with tea and sweets, and fall in love with Memphis all over again.

Tennessee is known for its pies and cakes, but 17 Berkshire is a local Memphis bakery that specializes in pastel-colored European desserts. 17 Berkshire gleans its name from the childhood address of the owner, Nuha, who was born and raised in the city of Memphis.

Though the Mississippi River-adjacent city is far from the streets of Paris, you'll find multi-colored macarons and delectable, delicate cakes and goodies.
