The Vendée strike

The Vendean strike is an oval pastry, lightly browned in the oven. A bit like a brioche but even more indulgent, it is the favorite dessert and snack for adults and children in Vendée.

In general, you can choose to taste it as an aperitif, slightly warmed in the oven. You can also make tasty sandwiches for your days in the Vendée nature!
