Who doesn't know Adam, the great name in macaroons, which has been attracting connoisseurs and epicureans alike since 1660. Thanks to an unchanged ancestral family recipe, macaroons are one of the proudest products of the Basque pastry-making industry, and are enjoyed without moderation. A success made of tradition and modernity, with a whole range of nuggets: Basque cakes, chocolates, soft cakes and more. And new creations every year. The new generation is now perpetuating the famous signature that can be found in Biarritz, Saint-Jean-de-Luz...

Owner's Message
The Adam House
Already Louis XIV in family had for the Adam macaroon the papilla which moves!
Imagine since then the confidences between generations of pastry chefs to preserve the secular and exceptional character of our macaroon. Imbued with Basque culture, our know-how is nestled in the heart of the Adam House, and, passed down from generation to generation, it conceals a jealously guarded secret in the service of excellence.
In 1660, in Saint-Jean-de-Luz, during the wedding of Louis XIV, the mother of Louis XIV and the Infanta of Spain Marie-Thérèse already succumbed to the delicacy of Monsieur Adam's macaroons.
These same "Paré Gabéa" (without equal in Basque) were served in the Adam's pastry shop to Russian refugees, artists, Breton fishermen and so many others who crowded in at the beginning of the century
Today, Andoni and Miguel Telleria-Adam are developing the business they inherited from their father Jean-Pierre and are keeping up the tradition while innovating in the demanding craft of pastry, confectionery and chocolate making.

Ils ont trouvé la boutique magnifique par son décor, ses chocolats, les macarons etc...
Pour vous donner une idée de prix j'ai acheté le 2 février 2024:
1 boîte de 18 macarons = 19,80€
Il est possible de commander par internet mais la facture sera + élevée avec les frais d'expédition onéreux entre 15€ et 20€ par boîte.
