Frédéric Vaucamps was born in the north of France and very early on he developed a passion for pastry making, which he decided to make his profession. He opened his first artisanal pastry shop in Hazebrouck in 1982 where he worked on various products, including meringue and brioche. He revisits the Merveilleux recipe, which he lightens up and offers in several flavours (dark chocolate, white chocolate, coffee, speculoos, cherry, almond and caramelised hazelnuts, caramel) and bingo, it's a success. The Merveilleux exists in mini, individual or cake of 4 to 24 parts. The Cramiques (brioches) are made with chocolate, sugar or raisins.
