The door opens on a delicate scent of orange blossom. Famous in Toulouse for its galettes des rois, or rather for its brioches des rois, this address is also highly recommended for tasting one of the tasty Pomponettes: light and delicate, made with brioche dough, this is the house speciality. Other gourmets will love strawberries, macaroons, rum babas, and, on the confectionery side, chocolates, orangettes, marrons glacés or fruit pastes. Happy tasting, Les Futés!

Even before we enter this patisserie, we're already enchanted and conquered by the sweet little treasures in the window. You'll be tempted to buy them all, and rightly so.

Mr Madeleine takes us back to a cookie we used to eat at snack time, accompanied by a square of chocolate: the madeleine. In the manner of Proust, it plunges us into childhood and comforting flavors. More than a pastry shop, this is a counter open to the street. In the window, five different flavors are available to take away or in a box: the classic plain, orange with a few zests, chocolate of course, almond - it's not a financier! - and lemon, another great classic. The idea germinated within the family, who embarked on the adventure, with father and son working early in the morning behind the stove.
