Put a creative twist on a classic treat with vibrant flavours that shine no matter the season—or give it a festive touch for the holidays!

These Mojito Madeleines by Blossom Bakery blend the vibrant, zesty flavours of mojito with the delicate elegance of traditional madeleines. They’re the perfect sweet escape to brighten any day.

The original recipe called for Banana and Coconut pairing for a tropical twist, or mix Piña Colada and Pineapple for a sunny burst of flavour. The possibilities are as endless as your imagination, so feel free to use any of our Flavour Drops to make this recipe uniquely yours.

Looking to get festive? These madeleines also transition beautifully into a cozy holiday treat. Using the same base recipe, Heather Shaw created a festive version with Hazelnut Flavour Drops and a decadent Chocolate Mocha Dip. The rich, nutty warmth of hazelnut combined with chocolate’s luxurious depth makes these madeleines perfect for holiday gatherings or as a thoughtful homemade gift.

Whether you’re all about exotic flavours or embracing the festive season, this recipe is a definite go-to for creative, flavourful bites all year long!

Notes

Madeleines are traditional French cookies that are really like cakes.

They can be flavoured many different ways, making them perfect for Hedessent Flavour Drops

Make it Festive

Follow the base recipe but swap out the Sour Wizard and Moijto Flavour drops for 1/4 tsp of our Hazlenut Flavour Drops. And replace the glaze with a Chocolate Dip.
