Madeleine

Uses:  Madeleines are normally baked in traditional metal shell baking moulds, although the recipe can be prepared in other formats. The batter can also be spread on baking sheets. While this works well, if a lighter texture is desired, the amount of flour in the recipe should be reduced.


What is the best cocoa powder? Plein Arôme


Why? The Plein Arôme powder is the perfect solution to get a round cacao taste in your madeleine with whole milk hints. A more alkalised cacao powder would also fit this recipe to get an intense cocoa taste, but the Madeleines would become more dense and brittle.


Scientific recommendations: The action of baking powder lightens the texture of the cake which visibly rises in the oven.
