[A Brief History of Luxury] Gourmet treasures at Ladurée

Known worldwide for its famous macaroons, the House of Ladurée, founded in 1862, has a history spanning 160 years.

 

In 1862, Louis-Ernest Ladurée decided to open a bakery in the Madeleine, the district of luxury artisans. This was at a time when Paris was changing its face under the impetus of Baron Haussmann.  Following a fire, it was reborn from its ashes as a pastry shop. Jules Chéret, an inspired poster artist and creator of the “Ange Pâtissier”, signed its decoration.
