Bredele

Bredele (also known as Bredala or Bredle) are little Christmas biscuits, synonymous with Alsace’s festive traditions. You can find them stacked up on the display stands of the chalets at Alsace’s Christmas Markets, and they're mostly enjoyed during the Advent period. However, the delicious enjoyment doesn't end in December with the Maison Alsacienne de Biscuiterie, and you can buy bredele all year-round in our 13 stores across Alsace and Lorraine.

What is a Bredele?

Bredele literally means "little biscuits" in the Alsatian dialect. Today, this name represents the traditional Christmas biscuits that have been (and continue to be) developed: dozens of types of "little biscuits" in different shapes and flavours. Their recipes are passed down from generation to generation, and Alsace families all look forward to the annual ritual of making them in the run-up to Christmas! This is why you’ll find them in abundance on Chrismas market stalls and in stores during traditional festive celebrations…

Our range of traditional Christmas biscuits

The extraordinary diversity of Bredele recipes and their shapes stand testament to the wealth of Alsace's culinary heritage. In addition to the traditional Bredele butter biscuits, our Maison has added an exclusive product of our own creation to the traditions: Bredele Moelleux. With its generous almond paste and creamy texture, this new speciality was instantly a hit with customers who had already been won over by our initial specialities.

That's why we're offering you the chance to (re)discover our Spritz, Marbré Damier, Anisbredele and Linzer for our Bredele butter biscuits. When it comes to the Moelleux (soft bredele), the Liabsti and Siess g'nuss are the epitome of the authentic Alsace experience in a delicate yet delicious style.

Why choose Maison Alsacienne de Biscuiterie for your Bredele?

All year round, our bredele are made in our Colmar Atelier. It all starts with a demanding selection process for the ingredients that we use in our recipes, and continues up to the choice of the most appropriate production method, whether it's traditional or modern. Each step of the process is equally important, well represented by the nut delicately placed on top of a bredele, for example. Lastly, the biscuits are hand-packed into our luxury tins and sachets, always with the utmost care given to the product.

These methods are passed on between the generations of our Maison's pâtissiers, guaranteeing respect for Alsace traditions and the exceptional quality of our bredele.

Our Bredele assortments in sachets or tins

Our Christmas Biscuits are available in sachets or beautiful tins, perfect for gifting or treating yourself. Each container is designed to preserve the freshness and texture of our Alsace Bredele, whether they’re the butter biscuit or Moelleux variety. Our Bredele tins are also excellent gift ideas for the festive season or throughout the year. Discover all of the wealth that traditional Alsace Christmas biscuits have to offer, beautifully presented and ready to be enjoyed.
