Gluten-Free Vanilla-Lemon Madeleines
Allergens
Gluten-free madeleines — and yet the real thing. Texture, taste, it's all there, and they're a real favourite.
A Pepilou's customer who had recently given up gluten, on the shop's opening day: "A madeleine? No thanks, I like real madeleines — I used to be a serious madeleine lover." Undeterred, we challenged him to taste one. His reaction? "Oh wow, this one's a triumph!"

About Pepilou's pastries
Pepilou's pastries contain simple, genuine ingredients. It's these ingredients from nature, their quality and our craft that make it possible to achieve truly flavourful pastries.
We use, among others: almonds, hazelnuts, coconut flour, coconut milk, maple syrup, coconut sugar, fresh fruit, and so on.
Nothing refined, nothing tampered with — always the choice of 0% additives and "junk".
Sugar is part of the pleasure — leaving it out is out of the question. That said, we use it in moderation, partly for health reasons (to avoid sugar spikes in particular), and partly because we use natural, pure ingredients, so we don't need to over-sweeten. The real flavours are already there; there's no need to "dress them up" with sugar.
At Pepilou's, we've chosen unrefined sugars, for two main reasons:
- they generally have a lower glycaemic index than refined sugar, which helps soften those well-known blood-sugar spikes;
- they're more valuable nutritionally, since they contain certain nutrients — unlike refined sugar, which is an "empty" sugar.
