Warm madeleines are best enjoyed with a cup of tea. Take an Earl Gray tea, a black tea flavored with bergamot. It will harmonize well with the lemon note of classic madeleines. To appreciate their taste and release their lemon flavor, madeleines have to be dipped in tea, the same way as Marcel Proust enjoyed little cakes.

Yes, you can freeze madeleines for up to six months, but they may lose their taste a bit.

To thaw them, bring the cakes to room temperature for one to two hours. Please, try to avoid using a microwave. There is much debate over whether madeleines are cookies or cakes.

Although many think they are teacake cookies or "sponge cake-like French madeleine cookies," they are actually mini cakes. But even in France, where the madeleines originated, many chefs still call them madeleine cookies.

Madeleines are a French type of petite gateau or sponge cake, usually shaped like an elongated scallop shell. As teatime cakes, they are an essential part of French culture. Ladyfingers are French biscuits too, but they originated in Italy and were inspired by the sponge finger recipe of Catherine de Medici's pastry chefs. They are used to prepare delicious desserts such as Charlotte or Tiramisu. Refrigerate the madeleine batter covered in contact with plastic film or a pastry bag for up to 2 days.

The best part is they thought they were super yummy! What a fun baking project you had with kids, Ginger! I am happy to hear that you all enjoyed making madeleiens! So sweet Thanks for letting me know. Hi, thank you for the detailed explanation!

I was very satisfied reading it because you also included the reason why it's needed! But I was wondering, what exactly is the reason that the recipe needs honey as an ingredient? Is it the replacement for milk?

If it is, can I substitute it with any other ingredients? Hello Cassie, since I adapted the recipe from the French pastry school, it is hard to answer why honey is included as an ingredient.

I made them once and wasn't impressed, but then maybe it was my recipe or not being able to get them out of their little molds. As the quote above suggests, Pizey, like Roux, is a fan of a hot oven for his madeleines — C, in fact, but I find they brown too quickly in mine.

A more moderate C — as suggested by Gellatly, Audot and Rouxel — seems safer, and still allows the little cake to develop the deliciously crisp frill around the edges that is so often missing from the shop-bought variety. After all, exquisite pleasure waits for no man. Melt the butter in a medium, light-coloured pan over a medium-high heat, bring to the boil and allow to simmer until it begins to turn golden brown.

Quickly pour into a heatproof bowl to stop it cooking any further and allow to cool. Whisk the eggs in a large bowl with both sugars and the salt until lightened in colour and voluminous.

Beat in the honey and orange blossom water if using, followed by the cooled butter. Whisk together the flour and baking powder to get rid of any lumps, then gently fold into the egg mixture.
