The best cannelés in Bordeaux!

Founded in 1988 by Philippe Baillardran, this establishment has distinguished itself with its "Canelé": pure vanilla, an alcohol-free cannelé, perfectly sweet and too easy to eat. Since then, the brand has been offering traditional cannelés, but also confections in nougatine and Bordeaux macaroons. While strolling around the city, you can't fail to spot the bright red fronts of Baillardran!

After Baillardran, you must stop at La Toque Cuivrée. For 30 years, it has been striving to (and succeeding in!) make the cannelés crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside! The adventure began in the 1980s, and since then, 21 stores have opened in Bordeaux, Arcachon, Niort, Brest and Toulouse!

Open for several years now, Cassonade patisserie, located under the Grosse Cloche in Bordeaux, is well worth a visit. Specializing in cannelés, this popular spot invites you to discover its vanilla and rum-flavored treats, as well as vegan options. Indulge in a cannelé spread that will allow you to prolong the pleasure at your next breakfast. Made from cannelé dough that has not been baked that day, this creation allows the shop to limit its waste production. To offer you the best cannelés, Cassonade selects organic products or those from sustainable production. This is even reflected in the choice of boxes used to ship cannelés ordered online. These boxes are made of metal and are therefore reusable. Would you like to enjoy your cannelés on site with a delicious hot chocolate, coffee, or herbal tea? Then take a moment to relax in the cozy café area provided for this purpose.

Just a stone's throw from Saint-André Cathedral and City Hall, Pâtisserie Pierre Mathieu celebrates Bordeaux's famous cannelé cakes in the purest tradition: crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, flavored with vanilla and delicately spiced with rum. A member of the Confrérie du Canelé de Bordeaux, the former pastry chef at the Mandarin Oriental Paris chose to return to Bordeaux, the city of his heart, much to the delight of visitors.

For a tasting experience off the beaten track, head to Atelier Micheline & Paulette. In this patisserie in the Chartrons district, chef Valentin Brault, who trained in the kitchens of Le Meurice alongside Cédric Grolet before settling in Bordeaux, revisits the great classics with a delicious and creative twist. A prime example is his chocolate praline cannelé, which combines melt-in-the-mouth texture with intense flavors. A unique gourmet experience, ideal to round off a stroll around Bordeaux.
