Maison Casati, well known to Norman palates with its store in Bagnoles-de-l'Orne, recently set up in Domfront. The traditional recipe for macaroons (developed by Henri Lenoir) has been perpetuated, as has the recipe for chocolate praline marshmallows and Camemberts, awarded the "Orne terroirs" label. While macaroons are "the" speciality of the House, don't forget the ice creams and other cookies that rub shoulders with confectionery and chocolates, including Tonneaux au Calvados. You'll also find products from local producers.

It's a well-kept secret, and one that contributes to the reputation of Moulins-le-Marche: the brioche! Light and tasty, it would have been created in the 1960s by the local baker, and the recipe remains unknown, except from a second bakery, also located in the town! Many people travel miles to get it, and we understand why! Another version exists, launched by the same establishment, and with the same success: flaky and slightly caramelized, it also has many fans. Tested and validated by the team!

Vanilla, blackcurrant, lime, speculoos and, for the more daring, saffron or basil: you can choose from a wide range of sometimes surprising flavours at R10.

The ex-veterinarian turned ice cream maker offers her artisanal specialities made with Perche milk. Herdis Paesen is already well known to gourmets: the Flemish-born specialist used to operate in Saint-Langis-lès-Mortagne, just a few kilometres away.
