Dominique Ansel, renowned French pastry chef and inventor of the Cronut, teamed up with nutritional bodycare brand iota to launch the luxurious Fresh-Baked Madeleines Hand Cream. This limited-edition hand cream, created in collaboration with the James Beard Award-winning pastry chef, is lightweight, buttery and formulated to melt into skin to impart deep hydration and comfort.

This sensitive-safe, microbiome-caring, vegan-friendly formula features key ingredients like smoothing, softening shea butter, ceramides, hyaluronic acid, citrus extracts for an even-toned appearance, plus prebiotics and postbiotics. To enhance the sensory experience, the iota x Dominique Ansel Fresh-Baked Madeleines Hand Cream shares a naturally derived golden, fresh-baked scent with notes of butter, citrus zest and sweet cake, reminiscent of warm madeleines just taken from the oven.
