Pure butter Madeleines

Our recipe for fluffy madeleines by Fauchon

The small shell-shaped cake so emblematic of the Fauchon house is back... You have recognized it well, it’s obviously the Madeleine. Did you miss her? Us too. The FAUCHON madeleines, lovingly crafted from pure butter, free-range eggs and French wheat flour embody the know-how and tradition of the house. Its soft heart, its slightly caramelized underside, its beautiful golden shell, its small plump belly, its molded shape, its sweet roundness, so many words to describe such a simple and authentic pleasure. For the house of Fauchon, its Madeleine is an adage and it is from generation to generation that the artisanal recipe follows it through the ages.

At the crossroads of tradition and greed, the Madeleine writes its own history before inscribing it in that of the house FAUCHON. This small shell-shaped cake takes us back to the 18th century, when the king of Poland was dazzled by the finesse of this dish and introduced it into the court of Versailles. These buttered sweets then become the very image of chic and elegance, as well as a must-have at prestigious tables around the world. If the madeleine perfectly embodies the art of living à la française, it is also one of the greatest symbols of the house Fauchon. Indeed, Auguste Fauchon opened his first grocery store specialized in French products in 1886, on the emblematic square of the capital and the brand that bears his name: the Place de la Madeleine.

While tasting the Madeleine FAUCHON, one cannot help but delight in widening their eyes or squinting their lips. She plays very well her role as Proust’s Madeleine, who soaks in a Mediterranean garden infusion or for more indulgence our caramel tea Fauchon de tilleul or croque, revives buried memories and provokes a raft of emotions. 

To have salted butter caramel madeleine
To enhance even more the sweetness of the madeleine FAUCHON, let yourself be tempted by a touch of gourmandise with our salted butter caramel.

The madeleine was born in the 18th century in Commercy, Lorraine. According to legend, a young servant named Madeleine Paulmier improvised this little cake for the exiled King of Poland, Stanislas Leszczynski. Captivated, he named the sweet after its creator. Introduced to the court of Versailles by his daughter Marie, wife of Louis XV, the madeleine became a symbol of refinement. It definitively entered French culture thanks to Marcel Proust, who made it a trigger for memories inIn Search of Lost Time.

The secret to a perfectly rounded madeleine lies in mastering the right temperature and timing. It's all a matter of patience, precision, and the right baking: a delicate balance that allows the dough to reveal all its lightness and form that iconic, pretty hump.

The unique taste of the all-butter madeleine lies above all in the quality of its ingredients. Soft butter, used generously, brings an incomparable aromatic richness, with melting and slightly nutty notes, especially when it delicately caramelizes during baking. Fresh eggs, meanwhile, add roundness and a soft texture, while wheat flour structures the cake without altering its sweetness. Finally, natural flavors like lemon zest, vanilla, or orange blossom can be added to subtly enhance the recipe. It is this perfectly mastered combination of simple ingredients that gives the all-butter madeleine its authentic and comforting taste.
