Madeleines don’t get as much attention as some other French desserts, but they truly get to shine on Mei Yee’s Instagram page. The viral food blogger is a huge fan of the French tiny sponge cakes, and she enjoys making them in all colors of the rainbow—starting with these five.
Yellow Madeleines
If yellow happens to be your favorite color, you have to try making these delicious lemon madeleines, which owe their vibrant shade to the combination of lemon zest and canary yellow safflower powder.
Orange Madeleines
Yee’s orange madeleines are one of her most beginner-friendly recipes, and you can use freshly squeezed orange juice and organic orange carrot powder to make them vibrant and delicious.
Green Madeleines
Many of the desserts on Yee’s Instagram page come in a lively shade of green thanks to matcha powder, and these madeleines filled with coconut matcha fudge sauce are a case in point.
Blue Madeleines
These mini madeleines are impossible to resist, and they wouldn’t be the same if it wasn’t for their blue spirulina and white chocolate coating.
Purple Madeleines
Another vibrant sweet treat that Yee introduced us to, these purple madeleines are coated with purple sweet potato and ebony carrot glaze.
