Amis d’enfance, Michel et Augustin ont décidé de créer leur aventure en 2004, une Tribu composée de 100 trublions proposant des recettes gourmandes concoctées à partir d’ingrédients de qualité et dont la composition est compréhensible par tous. Biscuits sucrés, salés, desserts gourmands, yaourts, boissons, nous proposons une large gamme de recettes car nous sommes passionnés par le goût (nous sommes tous diplômés du CAP Pâtissier) et considérons que notre mission est de relever les défis de la gourmandise et de nous adapter aux changements du monde alimentaire. Ceci, en étant entrepreneur de nos vies et en prenant soin de notre chouette planète : faire avant de faire faire. Childhood friends, Michel and Augustin decided to create their adventure in 2004, a Tribe made up of 100 troublemakers offering gourmet recipes concocted from quality ingredients and whose composition is understandable by all. Sweet and savory cookies, gourmet desserts, yogurts, drinks. They offer a wide range of recipes because we are passionate about taste (they are all graduates of the CAP Pâtissier) and consider that our mission is to meet the challenges of gluttony and adapt to changes in the food world. This, by being the entrepreneur of our lives and by taking care of our great planet: do before doing.
