The best pastry shops La Tour-D'Aigues

While madeleines originated in Commercy in eastern France, where Madeleine Paulmier invented the recipe in the ^18th century, in the Luberon region of France Émeline has been making hundreds of handmade madeleines every day since 2021, to the delight of gourmets. Crunchy and soft, not too sweet, plain, with chocolate, preserved lemon or almonds, they are shaped like a scallop shell. Émeline sells them at the La Tour d'Aigues and Pertuis markets, but they can also be ordered via her La Luberonnaise website.
