Imported from Brittany, Madeleines are sweet, moist muffins made from flour, sugar, butter and eggs. Madeleines have an interesting history. They became fashionable around 1730, first in Versailles, then in Paris, through Stanislas Leczinski, father-in-law of King Louis XV, who was very fond of them. This classic French delicacy can be enjoyed at any time of the day; an elegant addition to breakfast trays, great for coffee breaks, a must at tea time and an instant dessert with sliced fruit. Flavored with real vanilla.

Comments about French Madeleines:
These Madeline cake were very good. Just pop them in the microwave for 10 seconds and they taste like they were just baked fresh. Good product
