St Michel Galettes butter biscuits

St Michel Galettes are iconic French butter biscuits, deeply rooted in the culinary heritage of the Brittany and Pays de la Loire regions. Founded in 1905 by pastry chef Joseph Grellier in Saint-Michel-Chef-Chef, the brand has maintained its reputation for quality by using simple, local ingredients like French wheat flour and butter.

The brand remains under the ownership of St Michel Biscuits (formerly Morina Baie Biscuits), an independent French family-owned company. This ownership structure has allowed the brand to focus on sustainable practices, such as choosing cage-free eggs and local sourcing, while expanding its presence internationally. Most production remains localized in several bakeries across France, ensuring the authentic taste of the traditional recipe.
