Among the season's must-haves, the Key Lime Pie holds a special place. With its perfect balance between the acidity of the lime, the sweetness of the vanilla, and the crispness of a sweet pastry, it embodies the very essence of summer.


At Duc de Lorraine, each dessert is carefully crafted to offer a gourmet experience that blends traditional pastry-making with quality ingredients. Our Lime Tart is a true invitation to slow down, savor the moment, and celebrate the pleasures of summer.


An explosion of freshness with every bite

The magic of our Lime Pie lies in the harmony of its different textures and flavors.


It is composed of:

  • A smooth lime cream, both fresh and slightly tangy.

  • A delicately crispy sweet pastry that provides a melt-in-your-mouth and indulgent texture.

  • Lime zest that enhances the natural aromas of the fruit.

  • A light-as-a-cloud vanilla whipped ganache that perfectly balances the intensity of the lime.

Each bite offers a delicious contrast between the refreshing acidity of citrus and the comforting sweetness of vanilla.


Why is Key Lime Pie so popular in the summer?

Citrus desserts are especially popular during the warmer months thanks to their natural freshness. Unlike richer desserts, key lime pie offers a light and refreshing sensation, ideal after a meal or to accompany an iced coffee on a sunny afternoon.

It is also a versatile dessert that is suitable for a dinner party with friends, a picnic, a family celebration, or a special occasion.


A classic revisited by the Duke of Lorraine

For nearly 75 years, Duc de Lorraine has been showcasing the expertise of artisanal pastry-making in Montreal by creating desserts that transcend generations.

Our interpretation of Key Lime Pie respects the classics while showcasing the finesse of our pastry. Each pie is prepared with meticulous attention to detail to offer a perfect balance of indulgence, freshness, and elegance.
