    • During your visit to Carbonne, immerse yourself in the gourmet world of Maison Gélis, where local and regional flavors are passionately showcased. Our boutique is much more than just a place to stop; it embodies the know-how and love of our region's gastronomy, passed down for three generations.


      Among our specialties, discover the famous Violettine, a delicate flower-shaped pastry with a melting violet jelly center. This unique creation earned us second place for the Midi-Pyrénées Sud region during the show La Meilleure Boulangerie de France 2024! The Violettine, both crunchy and melting, is an ode to the culinary heritage of Toulouse, with its floral and refined flavor that leaves no one indifferent.

      But Violettine is just the beginning of this taste adventure. Let yourself be tempted by our almond tiles, light and crispy, ideal for a sweet break, or by our signature product: violet meringues, enhanced with delicate cocoa bean nibs. This subtle combination of the crunchiness of the meringue, the sweetness of the violet and the character of the cocoa makes each bite a unique sensory experience.


      Chocolate lovers will be delighted! Our artisan chocolatiers create fine pralines, flavored ganaches and other delicacies, perfect for a chocolate break or as a gift. Each bite is made with carefully selected ingredients to guarantee incomparable quality and taste.

      For lovers of sweets, we also offer crystallized violet candies, a classic that brings a touch of sweetness and elegance to every moment of tasting, as well as a violet tea with delicate and soothing notes, perfect for a relaxing break.


      • Our commitment to quality does not stop at our creations: we carefully favor local and regional raw materials . Flour, ham, coffee ... are carefully selected to guarantee high-quality products and support the artisans and producers of our region. By working hand in hand with them, we ensure authentic flavors and respect for our terroir in our recipes.


      And for those who wish to bring back a gourmet souvenir, Maison Gélis offers a selection of gift ideas: boxes of fine chocolates, boxes of almond tiles, or even cases of crystallized violets. Perfect for sharing a little of our know-how and our terroir with your loved ones, our boxes and assortments are designed for all occasions.

      If you are visiting or walking in Carbonne, stop at Maison Gélis to savor our specialties or simply enjoy a cold or hot drink in the tea room in our friendly space. Let yourself be carried away by the aromas and flavors of here, in a warm setting that invites relaxation and sharing.


      Maison Gélis is much more than a gourmet break: it is an immersion in the traditions and tastes of the South-West, where each product tells a story, that of a terroir and a know-how that we are keen to share with you.


      Find all our creations, our local products and much more on our social networks!

    Hello, We wanted to sincerely thank you for the magnificent cake you made for our wedding. Everything was incredible: the design, the taste, the presentation... The base was splendid, the cakes were delicious, we absolutely loved them! Truly, it was perfect, perfect, perfect—a true moment of sweet bliss that left a lasting impression on all our guests. If we had to point out one small drawback, it would simply be the lack of bases for the macarons. At our meeting, we thought they were planned—and in a wedding setting, it seemed quite natural. That said, the result was still spectacular, and it didn't spoil the experience in any way, as everything was truly delicious! Perhaps just one small point to keep in mind for future ceremonies: a clearly visible base for the macarons would make all the difference. A thousand thanks again for your talent, your kindness, and your professionalism. Thanks to you, this day will remain etched in our memories – and our taste buds will remember it for a long time! With all our gratitude, Camille VAZ and Grégoire URBAN

    A message to our valued customers: We left a large quetsh gourd decorated with floral motifs in the dining room last Saturday. The team informed us they hadn't found it. If you brought it with you knowing full well it didn't belong to you, we have no doubt your good intention was to find the unfortunate owner and return it. In this case, don't strain your eyes looking for our phone number on the gourd; please drop it off with the team instead. Maison Gélis has a dedicated lost and found area. Thank you in advance and wish you a wonderful day. PS: The macarons are absolutely exceptional.

    A pleasant place to enjoy a drink or a sweet treat. The products are of excellent quality. Warm welcome. Small drawback: the restrooms need to be cleaned.

    This is a simple bakery with half a dozen stools and a simple shelf bar for a quick snack, but nothing more, and certainly not for any kind of proper meal. At least it’s open all day, if you’re too...
