It all began 40 years ago with an original French recipe in Berkeley, California in 1976. A creative entrepreneur and a passionate baker crafted a treat unlike any other, the traditional madeleine, a moist and delicate little cake with a fresh, unforgettable taste. Today in Alameda, the artisanal bakers at Donsuemor continue to create a full line of madeleines and other elegant French-inspired desserts such as french almond cakes, biscotti, and the latest creations, the sablés. Donsuemor continues its tradition of crafting products inspired by the founders’ love of classic old world recipes baked with a craftsman’s attention to quality and detail.
