The mass production ensures the cheap price of the product, right !...

Used to use a few ovens like this. Made some of the best chocolate soufflets

Hey, I live here, close to the Roy René Calisson Museum

Looks like they are using soldering paste to re-ball a computer chip

Oh that's a specialized tool, that one as well, and that one as well, and.... is everything in this bakery custom built?

You're the true hero here. Thank you.

Any recipe that involves a straight up plastering trowel gets my vote
Daraanel
...a filling/tape scraper *and* a plastering trowel

Why does mine taste like drywall compound?

Just like mama used to make. With hydraulic presses and rotating industrial ovens.
InnerBushman
PS: industrial oven is just a bigger version of home oven.
Solivoid
With added functionalities, like steam sprays.
Unclescam
Don't forget the drywall knife and flat trowel.
InnerBushman
That's not hydraulic press. That's hand operated lever. Those exist for couple if millennia at least. Sure, the quality of the device is to a modern standard, but the principle can be centuries old.
SmoeAhsolse
It looks like it's a rack and pinion press. And it's impolite to suggest that their mother is thousands of years old.
InnerBushman
I think it's more of a lever and a cam design. Notice it's two stage. The first stage presses everything out and second stage retract the bulk of the extractor, leaving only a small support in the center. I don't think your could do that with a rack and pinion. Your "yo mama" joke is also weak.

Unironically, I do love that humanity has an unlimited capacity to come up with new shapes of sweet bread topped in wet sugar, and that each shape gains enough individual popularity to justify its own specially crafted machinery to ensure you can make enough of them to keep up with the days demand.
tankerofquetzals
There's no cereal in this one, it's almond paste, and the top is meringue, which is only distantly wet sugar. BUT APART FROM THAT... what you say is true 😁

Baker: "We tried square ones and they just weren't popular. So we went with oval and now everybody loves the taste of them"

Sandwiches cut diagonally into triangles *do* taste better and I will die on this hill!
maincarrot
I sometimes just want a crustless sandwich cut into long strips 😭

Music is “And I love her” by Santo and Johnny

Was still curious and looked it up

The first one was where I expected, the second was hidden better.
MyBigMouth
I wish playback controls were available on the app, and the ability to zoom, because to quote Spaceballs Tuvok, I ain't found shit.
axiomatik
iOS app has playback controls, though recently they’ve gotten goofy and tapping on the gif now makes it reload in full screen mode. Before you could just tap the gif and the playback controls would appear.
SignedEpsteinsMother
Nice and subtle too. Found them on the third repeat
ChickenEasy
One on the shirt. Where th f... is the other??

Hey that's a specialty from next to where I was born
DeathLemons
There's a specialty bakery right next to your mother's vageen?
GussDeBlod
yes
simianruler
That's a whole lot nicer than the specialty near where I was born. That was ovens....
laDisparitionDesHeures
Oh nice! And what's your mother's maiden name? :p

Typical Aix-en-Provence royalty, I see! (and I should know, I did my lycée there!)
GussDeBlod
I was born in Marseille and raised around Martigues, so I'm not far away, but I'm not actually from there XD
thinkybrainpains
Is it like marzipan? What flavors do they have?
Idontneedrealfacts
Almond...
thebigtoto
Heaven. They taste like heaven.
GussDeBlod
The texture is a bit like marzipan nut rougher, taste of almond and orange with a hint of melon. It's very good. The white part above sometimes has a lemon taste to it.
It's a traditional dessert here for christmas.
GussDeBlod
But rougher*
thinkybrainpains
Oh yummy! That sounds delicious!
BodgeandScarper
What are they, and where are they from??

From next to.

Calissons, South of France?
voidmain
Calissons are from Aix-en-Provence and are made of an almond and dry fruit paste (similar to marzipan but softer and tastier) and the white part is a thin layer of meringue.
jefw1f
That sounds yum!!
