For those unfamiliar, Madeleines are delicate little cakes from the Lorraine region in northeastern France. The little cakes are best known for their shell-shaped depressions, which give them a delicate seashell-like design. [Trader Joe’s](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caramel-palmiers) Gluten Free Madeleine Cookies follow this tradition with some cake-like cookies made by a bakery partner in France. This supplier manages to find the perfect ratio of [gluten-free flours](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glutenfree-mini-cookies) to give the cookies that light and airy texture you'd expect while still delivering a slightly sweet flavor. Best paired with a bold cup of coffee or milky tea, the new Gluten Free Madeleine Cookies will be a welcome addition to any dessert plate or mid-day tea.
