I’m crazy about MADELEINES!! Danggit, can I have your husband’s grandmom’s recipe? Please email the recipe at ianne46@hotmail.com. Thanks! I just came back from Cebu, but I didn’t know that they sell madeleines there. Here in Canada, I buy them at the grocery stores. They’re truly yummy!

i love madeleines!! my most favorite madeleine recipe is the one from pierre herme’s chocolate desserts book. i also found a great green tea madeleine recipe from a food blog a couple of months back. it was such a hit!

im glad to know that there are more people now selling madeleines. yay!!!

hehe very thin lace cookies sandwiched with belgian chocolate (semi sweet, dark, white or mint). so thin, they are as thin as your regular cd.

the appearance is so like lace that the chocolate often peeks through the tiny holes in the cookie layers themselves.

i hope thats a better description :-)if not, maybe we have to put in a picture! hahaha

very flat discs of cookie or caramel with chocolate…they look lacey. Hmmm, interesting that I can’t describe them well… ness, the delifrance ones are great…I think the ones in cebu are more moist and have more flavor…

Ging n MM, what are dentelles? Am curious. BTW, am getting my coffee mangosteen cake on Sunday! Yay! Next try, madeleines (those of french baker are diamond-shaped and taste just like butter cakes. are they anywhere near authentic? shape notwithstanding, of course.)
