Alsace biscuits
Bredele butter biscuits are little biscuits that you’ll often see stacked on the display stands at Alsace Christmas markets and that are traditionally enjoyed during the Advent period. Their recipes are passed down from generation to generation, and making them in the run-up to Christmas is a ritual that Alsace families eagerly look forward to each year.
Our range of Bredele butter biscuits
The very essence of Bredele is found in their incredible diversity, both in terms of shapes of flavours. Whether they are made with a piping bag, by hand or with a teaspoon, like the Anisbredele or the Spritz, and regardless of whether they’re cut with a cookie cutter, like the Marbré Damier or the Schwowebredele, or even moulded like the Springerle, our range of Bredele butter biscuits stands testament to the wealth of indulgence that our region has to offer.
When it comes to the ingredients, traditional pâtisserie products - flour, butter, eggs and sugar - are combined with more exotic ingredients such as spices (cinnamon, vanilla, cloves, aniseed, ginger, cardamom…), vanilla or lemon.
Why choose the Maison Alsacienne de Biscuiterie for your Butter Biscuits?
These methods are passed on between the generations of our Maison's pâtissiers. All year round, our butter biscuits are made in our workshop in Colmar. It all starts with a demanding selection process for the ingredients that we use in our recipes, and continues up to the choice of the most appropriate production method, whether it's traditional or modern. Each step of the process is equally important, well represented by the nut delicately placed on top of a bredele, for example. Lastly, the biscuits are hand-packed into our luxury tins and packets, always with the utmost care taken over the product.
This requirement guarantees respect for the ancestral traditions of our region and gives our Bredele butter biscuits their unrivalled quality.
