Celebrity Pastry Chef Sets Up Shop at Caesars Palace

High-profile pastry chef Dominique Ansel has opened a bake shop offering creative confectionaries, decadent desserts and his famed Cronut pastries within Caesars Palace on the Las Vegas Strip.

Offerings at the new shop include Ansel’s only-in-Vegas “Lucky 7” collection, cookie shots, frozen s’mores, the Cronut flavor of the month, and more, according to a news release.

Dominique Ansel Las Vegas at Caesars Palace spans more than 1100 square feet and features cafe-style seating for 20. It joins several other big-name dining destinations within the 85-acre resort, including celebrity-chef restaurants like Gordon Ramsay Hell’s Kitchen, Pronto by Giada, Amalfi by Bobby Flay and Vanderpump Cocktail Garden by restaurateur and television star Lisa Vanderpump.

Slated to open at Caesars Palace in the coming months are New York Steak House Peter Luger and Stanton Social Prime.

“I’m so thrilled to finally bring Dominique Ansel Las Vegas to life and have a home here at Caesars Palace,” said Ansel, the inventor of the Cronut and other creations who has been dubbed a “Culinary Van Gogh” by Food & Wine magazine. “We’ve been so honored and humbled to welcome guests from all around the world. For each of our shops, we strive to make each menu unique, and we hope our ‘Lucky 7’ pastry collection will bring some good fortune to everyone here.”
