Last April on New Canaan’s busy Main Street, a premium French patisserie opened, and unless you walked by or if you’re a bona fide townie, there’s a chance you don’t even know it’s there. “No need to be embarrassed!” owner-pastry chef Elizabeth Srivastava says. “We’re sneaky! We haven’t done much marketing. We focused on organic growth, so there are still many people out there that haven’t heard of us yet.” Over a year later and her bakery, Saisons Sucrées is gaining traction. Just swing by midday any day of the week and you’ll see. It’s usually buzzing with locals enjoying a coffee, croissant, sweet treat, or sandwich. Take a look in the case and they might be close to sold out of more than a few items.
