Classic Canelé de Bordeaux

A canelé is a small French pastry with a soft, custardy interior and a dark, thick, caramelized crust. It originates from the Bordeaux region of France and is traditionally flavored with vanilla and rum.

We make each one by hand in small batches using simple, real ingredients: fresh eggs, whole milk, real vanilla beans, a splash of dark rum, and a touch of orange liqueur.  

To get that perfect contrast between the caramelized crust and the soft, custardy center, canelé batter is rested in the fridge for up to 48 hours. This extra time lets the flavors of vanilla and rum come together and gives the pastry its signature texture. It’s a little wait, but totally worth it.

The magic happens during a slow bake in traditional copper molds from France and Japan, giving each canelé its deep caramelized crust and perfect texture.

We ship our canelés and other items in vacuum-sealed packs to preserve freshness. 

Whether you’re gifting, enjoying with coffee, or just treating yourself, these pastries are a tasty little escape to Bordeaux—no passport required.  

What Makes Them Great:

• Small-batch made with care 
• Real ingredients, no junk 
• Based on a true French recipe  

Canelés will stay fresh and crunchy for at least a few days, but if you want to bring back that just-baked crispiness, just do one of the following:

• Air Fryer: Preheat to 375°F (190°C), then heat the canelés for 3–5 minutes. Let them cool for a minute before enjoying—the crust will crisp up beautifully.
  
  
• Conventional Oven: Preheat to 400°F (200°C), place the canelés on a baking sheet, and heat for about 5–8 minutes. Allow them to sit for a couple of minutes to let the crust firm up.
