Maison Jock Canelés de Bordeaux Baking Mix
Maison Jock Canelés de Bordeaux Baking Mix lets you prepare the famous French pastry from Bordeaux with ease. This ready-to-use mix helps you recreate authentic canelés with their signature contrast: a caramelised, crispy exterior and a soft, custard-like centre.
Maison Jock, founded in 1938, produces this baking mix in Bordeaux, respecting the traditional spirit of this iconic regional recipe. You simply add milk and butter, bake, and enjoy homemade canelés with rich vanilla and rum notes typical of the original Bordeaux speciality.
The pastry appeared in the 18th century, closely linked to the Bordeaux wine trade. Winemakers used egg whites to clarify wine, which left large quantities of egg yolks unused. Bakers reused these yolks to create a rich batter made with milk, sugar, flour, butter, vanilla, and rum.
Local convents and bakeries in Bordeaux refined the recipe, baking the batter in fluted copper moulds coated with beeswax. This method created the canelé’s signature texture: a dark, caramelised crust and a soft, custard-like centre.
Today, canelés remain a symbol of Bordeaux’s culinary heritage and one of the most iconic French regional pastries.
Perfect for dessert, afternoon tea, or special occasions, this mix delivers consistent results while preserving the taste and charm of a classic French pastry.
