FINE COOKIES MEET PAINTER GAUGUINBrittany, in Western France, is world famous for making fine butter cookies. Traou Mad can be credited for contributing to this fame to more than one extent.
Brittany has such a long and rich history that it has developed its own language, Breton, which is still being taught in schools and used by a few people willing to preserve tradition. The Breton Traou Mad means "bonnes choses" in French or "good things" in English.
This Brittany company was founded almost a century ago. It all started with baker Alexis Le Villain (which literally means Alexis the naughty!). He invented the thick buttery cookie in the picturesque town of Pont-Aven which was made famous by renowned painter Paul Gauguin.
International success and fame came when Traou Mad partnered with Gauguin in the 80's to feature his work on Traou Mad's metal boxes of French galettes. *** BRAND UNAVAILABLE UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE ***
