For indulging, XXL, and extraordinary Easter, run to Mado à Paris in the 1st arrondissement, a store specialized in madeleine, and proposing on the occasion a very original and chocolatey creation! And for good reason, brace yourselves because you will get a huge madeleine, as the house sells a chocolate egg shaped as… a gigantic madeleine!
An XXL-sized madeleine, with a lace structure, hollow on the inside, and filled with very special “casts”: small madeleines made with milk or dark chocolate, as well as milk chocolate rochers and mendiants to keep things very indulging. Note the giant madeleine is available in large and small sizes (well, a really generous piece no matter the size…), in milk or dark chocolate versions, or even in a golden milk chocolate version.
A creation the editorial board tasted. Wrapped in a lovely yellow ribbon, this Easter madeleine-egg is incredibly looking and generous. We were delighted to discover the golden milk chocolate version, and we fell in love with the grand cru milk chocolate, low in sugar, tasty and balanced. It is simple: every time we took a bite, we wanted another one, and it was a struggle not to eat it up in one go…
As for the “casts”, honorable mention to the homemade and very flavorsome rochers. As for the price, allow €39 for the big 450g madeleine, and €30 for the small 350g madeleine. Anyway, it was a great discovery and a great gift idea if you want an extraordinary egg… We recommend to go to the store instead of ordering it online, as it is fragile and it will prevent it from arriving broken! Shall we go to Mado à Paris to get your madeleine, then, friends?
