Les Madeleines d’Émilie is a full-on celebration of the madeleine in all its forms. Sweet, savoury, gluten-free, vegan, giant, or bite-sized, each version of this iconic French shell-shaped cake is made fresh with local ingredients and just enough precision to show off. The base is classic: eggs, butter, sugar, flour. But from there, things branch out fast—think pistachio and raspberry, goat cheese and thyme, blue cheese with poached pear. You can mix and match in custom boxes or split a giant version among friends. Situated across from Parc Jeanne-Mance, the shop feels like a small detour into a slower, more delicious world. No preservatives, no shortcuts—just careful craft and Québécois ingredients.
