Le cahier de l'été est arrivé !
At the pace of the sweetest season
Lingering. Probably summer's best idea so far. Afternoons that go on a bit longer under the parasol, trains in no particular hurry, terraces you somehow can't quite leave after the coffee, and hammocks with strong opinions about getting up.
At Dandoy, we love these moments as deeply as they deserve. Our biscuits have always found their way into them. But this summer, we wanted to fill in another square: a playbook that slips into all these moments without taking a thing from their slowness.
At Dandoy, we're rather fond of these moments, and our biscuits have a habit of inviting themselves along. This summer though, we thought we'd fill in a few blanks of our own: a playbook that fits into all of it without rushing a thing.
More than a playbook, a proper guided tour
Under cover of crosswords, sudoku, quizzes and the rest, the playbook tells our story. Our biscuits, our flavours, our little ways, and even one or two of the things we stand for. Page after page, you'll come across ingredients that make all the difference, biscuits we all know by heart, dates that left a mark, and a handful of convictions we've been holding on to for a while now. All of it turned into grids, riddles and games. The best way to talk about yourself, after all, is to let other people guess as they play.
Reading between the grids
Au fil des pages, le cahier glisse quelques mots sur ce qui nous tient à cœur. Une farine régénérative, un moulin qui tourne dans le bon sens, des producteurs qu'on choisit près de chez nous, sept générations qui se sont passé le flambeau, une certification B Corp qui n'est pas qu'un logo.
Si on les a mis là, ce n'est pas pour cocher les cases. C'est parce qu'on croit qu'on peut rire, jouer, et construire un monde meilleur, un biscuit et une grille de jeu à la fois.
Ce cahier, on l'a pensé pour toute la famille. Pour que les plus grands y prennent plaisir, et que les plus petits y prennent goût. Parce que c'est sans doute comme ça, entre deux biscuits et deux énigmes, que se transmet le mieux ce en quoi on croit, et que peuvent germer, pas à pas, page après page, les gestes qui font la différence pour la planète.

Double-word delight
The playbook is good. The playbook with biscuits within reach is better! To go with all your playful moments, nothing beats our summer boxes, made for sharing with family and friends:
La Tutti Frutti - Fruity biscuits to enjoy all summer long.
L'Heure d'Été - Biscuits to enjoy barefoot, with your glasses on
L’Amour de Saison - A round lemon biscuits and a square of strawberry biscuits made with in-season strawberries.
Aiming for triple-word delight? Just add a scoop of ice cream or sorbet on the side...
