DIY Madeleine pans, original watercolor, 9" x 11"
I'm gearing up to make my own madeleines. It's about time I moved into the kitchen.
Sometimes you fall on something much more wonderful than what you were looking for, like I fell on this no-name boulangerie.
Peeking in this window, who could resist going inside?
Did you ever see a more traditional old fashioned bakery? And this is in Paris
Look at the lace doilies in the straw baskets. I bet in the French countryside there aren't places like this anymore. Are there?
The painted ceiling is DIVINE. And a chandelier too. Was this once a very grande boulangerie.
Wall flowers...daisies...
Divine bow-tied croissants. And did you notice the butterflies along the ceiling up above? Are these Belle Epoch style? What's your guess?
Oh and they have macarons naturalment! THIS is PARIS afterall.
A lovely old painted mirror sign, as fresh as when it was first put up too...
This is what I bought - 3 madeleines and for just 1.10 Euros Prices from 1890's too.
If you know of other forgotten but still wonderful old Paris boulangeries PLEASE LET ME KNOW!
BONNE JOURNEE
