French Inspired Recipes

Bienvenue to our French-inspired recipe collection!

At Maison Cupcake, we adore France: here is my compilation of French inspired recipes borrowing techniques and flavours of French cuisine. From delicate pastries to rustic tarts and classic bakes. For a show-stopping dessert or a weekday treat with a French twist, or simply want to explore traditional French flavours at home, this collection brings together my French recipes in one place.

You don't need to be a Cordon Bleu chef to get taste of France at home; these recipes are approachable for home cooks, using ingredients you can find locally, while still capturing that unmistakable French flair. Expect buttery pastries, vibrant fruit tarts, comforting stews, and a touch of patisserie magic. Many of these recipes are updated classics from our archive, refreshed with tips, step-by-step guidance, and beautiful photography to inspire your baking and cooking.

Explore, enjoy, and bring a taste of France into your kitchen with Maison Cupcake.
