Q&A
What is a French Baby Cake?
A French Baby Cake is a small, refined cake inspired by traditional French baking. The recipes are from Ocemiam, a blend of classic French influences, mainly inspired by the Financier, a recipe that dates back to the 19th century. It took hundreds of attempts for each flavor to reach the result we wanted, only driven by quality and taste and never by cost of ingredients.
