The shop front on Rue des Filatiers stands out for its bold, oversized painted signage that mimics a mid-twentieth-century aesthetic. Inside, this bakery specializes in the madeleine, the small French sponge cake baked in a distinctive shell-shaped mold. In the nineteen twenties, a local baker famously insisted that the perfect madeleine must be baked until the hump on its back reaches exactly three millimeters high. This shop continues that precise tradition, serving them warm and scented with Madagascar vanilla or orange blossom.
