Description
Moist and buttery sponge cakes with the traditional European madeleine flavor of almond. The Classic Madeleine is baked in the shape of a seashell with ridges on one side and a “belly” on the other.
The Origin of the Madeleine: 18th century King Stanislas 1st, Duke of Lorraine
During a festive dinner party in Commercy, France, the king’s chef abruptly left the kitchen. Seeking a solution to feed his guests dessert, a servant girl in the kitchen offered to make her family’s traditional pastry. The king enjoyed the little cake so much that he named it after the servant: Madeleine.
Baked with non-GMO ingredients and free-range eggs. No preservatives, palm oil, hydrogenated oil or colorings. Baked with love in France.
We all have our Madeleine moment:
- Enjoy every day for breakfast, snack, or dessert (Just as the French do!)
- Pack in lunches or backpacks for school
- Serve during business, book club, or PTA meetings
- Cut in half and fill with jelly or chocolate hazelnut spread
- Decorate cakes or cupcakes with classic seashell shape
