The madeleine de Saint-Yrieix is as famous as the madeleine de Commercy. Rumor has it that its history is linked to the tradition of the pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela, when a young girl named Madeleine offered pilgrims an egg cake made from a scallop shell. This is the origin of the characteristic shape of this soft, fragrant cake.
In Saint-Yrieix, the "Bijou" and "Boule d'Or" manufacturers rub shoulders with craftsmen whose expertise contributes to the reputation and taste of the madeleine by creating original flavour blends (hazelnut, apple, grand marinier): "Vanille et chocolat", "Le Fournil Arédien", "La Cerise sur le Gâteau", "Le Croquembouche", "Tartine", "Boulangerie pâtisserie Gourdet", "Oh! Délices d?Antan".
