"A canele, of course, is a little rotund French cake impregnated with beeswax: an acquired taste, to be sure, but considered a foremost test of the baker’s art back home. Cannelle (which means “cinnamon”) is the name of a Queens bakery under the watchful eye of patissiers Jean Claude Perennou and G. Sabaratnam, located in a shopping center in Jackson Heights. Lying in the center of the block, the complex is so hard to find you can’t even see it from a block down 31st Avenue." - Robert Sietsema
