Madeleines (min 10 per order)

The madeleine, a small shell-shaped sponge cake, originates from France, specifically the Lorraine region. Its creation is attributed to the 18th century when a young maid named Madeleine is said to have baked them for the Duke of Lorraine, who popularized the recipe. Some accounts also link the madeleine to the pilgrimage town of Commercy, where it became a local specialty. The madeleine gained literary fame through Marcel Proust’s In Search of Lost Time, where its taste evokes deep childhood memories.
