Gavottes® at Vieilles Charrues Festival in New York

01/10/2016

Last October 1st,  took place the Vieilles Charrues in New York for their 25th anniversay. 

We were an official partner of this event and were there in Central Park ! 

The program includes, concerts and merrymakings highlighting Brittany right in Central Park ! 

We organised a Crêpes Dentelle tasting; French people in New York and Americans who were attending the event could therefore discover our brand Gavottes® and our Crêpes Dentelle. 

A real success with some products that pleased more and more across the Atlantic. 

Discover our little secrets!

Authentic

The place of the crispy crêpe in Brittany’s culinary tradition

What could be more authentic than someone getting a little forgetful in the kitchen? Just a pancake left a little too long on the stove by Marie-Catherine Cornic in Quimper, in 1893. So the good lady decided to fold it, roll it up, and pop it in her mouth… And the little crêpe that had seemed ruined turned out to be lighter and crispier than ever! This was the origin of the crispy Brittany crêpe, and its authenticity has been jealously preserved ever since. In making authentic Gavottes crispy crêpes, the key ingredients used by our pastry cooks are wheat flour, sugar and butter. Preference goes to raw materials produced by French farmers. Our crispy Brittany crêpes contain no food colourings, preservatives, palm oil or GMOs.

Wicked

Far more than a chocolate cake, a mysterious source of well-being

Gavottes products exist to give pleasure, day by day. You pop this little packet of biscuits in your bag – biscuits you would love to keep, secretly, jealously, all to yourself… And the moment you put them on the table, they attract greedy looks from all and sundry, irresistible in their golden glory. A crunchiness you just have to share with friends. Gavottes are no different from those who enjoy them delightful and wicked.

Refined

A thoroughly elegant Breton recipe

What pleasure would there be in eating and drinking without refinement? Gavottes skilfully combines both. In their attractive golden coatings, crispy Brittany crêpes can be picked apart with the utmost delicacy. Elegance in the very gesture! A fine appearance, a delicate, sugary fragrance, sometimes even a hint of chocolate. The refinement continues on into the tasting, characterised by sophistication, a burst of flavour, and crispy lightness. A rare moment to savour...

Light and crispy

The chocolate biscuit to die for

Let’s get our teeth into this delicate biscuit! Yes, Gavottes crispy Brittany crêpes have always had a melt-in-the-mouth crunchiness. From the very first one left on the stove by Marie-Catherine Cornic to its modern counterpart, always the same sensation. An explosion in the mouth, thanks to the famous eight-fold rolling process. Famous because it is unique in the world, a jealously kept secret. Gavottes surely deserve a bit of mystery !

A story of sweet temptation

1886

Invention of the crispy Brittany crêpe

Imagine the buzz of activity in this Quimper kitchen. Distracted by a multiplicity of tasks, our valiant pastry-cook leaves one of her crêpes on the stove. And what is she to do, at a time when nothing must be wasted? Marie-Catherine Cornic rolls it up and pops it in her mouth. She experiences a wonderful new crunchy sensation, a golden lightness… the crispy Brittany crêpe is born!

1920

Founding of the Gavottes® biscuit factory, in Quimper

Mme Cornic’s revolutionary ‘method’ is now imitated by many pastry cooks in the new Gavottes® biscuit factory in the Loc Maria district. They roll each crispy crêpe, by hand, over and over eight times. In less time than it takes to dance an eight-step gavotte!

1950

Industrialisation of the biscuit factory

The popularity of the crispy crêpe recipe is such that the deft fingers of our pastry cooks can no longer keep up with demand. The process is therefore mechanised, thanks to a unique rolling technique. A pastry cook can now produce 1,500 crispy crêpes in one hour, a big advance on 100!

1962

The biscuit factory moves to Dinan

Our delicate crispy Brittany crêpes are appreciated - and therefore shipped - all over the world. As a result, the old building in the Loc Maria district of Quimper becomes too cramped. So the operation moves to Dinan, to a new factory with 4,500 m2 of floor space. Gavottes® does not mind, as long as they remain in Brittany!

1978

Creation of the chocolate-coated crispy Brittany crêpe

As the 1970s progress, Gavottes® becomes even more tempting. Our delicate crispy Brittany crêpes are determined to keep up with the times, appearing in pleasurable new guises. They come in rich dark and milk chocolate coatings, but without losing anything of their elegance and crispiness!

1990

The Gavottes biscuit factory becomes part of the Loc Maria group

Time now for a great leap forward! Named in memory of a district of Quimper famous for its traditional crispy Brittany crêpes, the Loc Maria biscuit group is born! Gavottes® joins the group, followed later by other French biscuit makers with special expertise. So crispy Brittany crêpes are joined by galettes, rolled and fan wafers...

2010

Gavottes® turns 90

What an eventful life! 90 already, so Happy Birthday, Gavottes® ! You are now enjoyed in more than 40 countries. Light, crispy, deliciously golden, the birthday cake is right to hand, and lights up the Dinan’s ramparts. Marie-Catherine Cornic and her sister pastry cooks of all those years ago would be overwhelmed and delighted by such success.

2012

Gavottes® innovates with thin cookies

Now famous for its crispy crêpes, Gavottes® offers a new range with thin cookies still as crispy as the others. Salted butter caramel and vanilla from Madagascar or salted chocolate, you will for this new range !
