"Cakes, chocolates, baked goods and Normandy. Le Pommier is a collection of everything I love”
With that said, Frédéric Madeleine is meticulous when it comes to choices of ingredients.
Years of experience have built up his insight to notice subtle changes in the ingredients whenever the season starts transitioning.
How to keep the aroma, acidity, and sweetness of the ingredients enriched, even more than the ingredients themselves is his basic stance in making pastries.

Il n’y a pas de bon chef, il n’y a que de bon produits.
The deliciousness of pastries is not about the chef’s skills. Even with the most competent chef, without the use of good ingredients, he can’t make good pastries.
Come to Pommier’s boutique, you will feel the chef's love for his hometown all over the store.
From the floor to coating, accessories to the walls and lighting...everything about interior design tells something about his hometown Normandy.
It is a place that resembles the tranquil life in the countryside of Northern France.
It is a place that is like a soft light from the fireplace that brings warmth on a cold winter day.
It is a place that reminds us of the important things we have forgotten in our hectic lives.
Le Pommier's boutique desires to be such a place, to yield a new experience, and to offer a place to always come back to.

15 years since the opening, “Pommier” has been second to none as a specialty, and it is definitely my favorite gateau.
To know the secret of its hexagonal shape,
you’ll have to walk into my boutique and lower your gaze at it.
You will notice something for sure.
This idea came from the Camembert of my hometown in Normandy. This is an unique and one-of-a-kind pastry that can only be found at Le Pommier. Is it Camembert-flavored chocolate? Or is it chocolate-flavored Camembert?
You’ll have to try to know the answer.
Chocolate is the most delicate of all pastry. A tiny error of one degree Celsius could change the result completely. It is no exaggeration to say that many years of craftsmanship are packed into this “1000yen apple”.
