    • Brioches Fonteneau is above all a family story that began in 1977 in the heart of the Vendée countryside in a bakery. Very quickly, they offered their brioches and gâches to supermarkets in the Vendée and Nantes regions. Over the years, the family SME grew and continued to innovate. Today, the second generation has taken over the company with a team of more than 300 employees on three production sites.

      The traditional brioche dance is a must at Vendée weddings. These round brioches come in two sizes, 6kg or 12kg. They are carried on wooden stretchers with four handles and are most often offered by the godfather or godmother. Everyone then starts dancing in a farandole under the brioche! After that, the brioche is shared and tasted by all the guests, 60 portions for the 6kg and 120 portions for the 12kg.

      There are of course other traditional brioches like the 2.5kg or the Label Rouge ! Brioches Fonteneau continues to perpetuate this Vendée tradition by offering wedding brioches traditionally cooked in a stone oven.

      Do you want to do a brioche dance at your wedding? Then go directly to the store to order it or contact them by email or phone.

    I learned about Fonteneau brioche thanks to Leclerc St Medard in Jalles (Bordeaux). Excellent brioche, not too sweet and of very good quality.
