La Cerise

In the 1930 book A Dictionary of Color it is pointed out that the color cerise has always been depicted as a somewhat bluer color than the actual color of a fresh uncooked cherry, which is denoted by a different redder color called cherry red.

The name of the patisserie on Great Junction Street therefore makes sense.......if they offer a cherry pie.
