CREATIONS GOURMANDES

What CREATIONS GOURMANDES does

Créations Gourmandes is a French confectionery and pastry retailer headquartered in Torcy, France, operating with a headcount of approximately 7 employees. The company sells artisanal desserts, pastries, and celebration cakes, including seasonal offerings such as a Christmas cake (gateau noel), to individual consumers seeking premium-quality desserts for personal consumption, family occasions, gifting, and special events. The product catalog is organized into standard retail categories (new products, promotions, liquidation) and is browsable by brand.

The business runs a direct-to-consumer model combining physical retail storefronts with an owned e-commerce website at creationsgourmandes.com. The online storefront includes store-selection functionality that lets customers choose a physical location for purchase or pickup, along with standard e-commerce features (search, cart, wishlist, customer accounts) and a newsletter signup. The e-commerce platform is powered by Comelin, identified as the website technology provider. The company's marketing footprint is limited to organic social channels — Facebook and Instagram — plus an email newsletter, with no paid acquisition, B2B, or wholesale channels described.

No revenue figures, funding rounds, ownership structure, founding date, certifications, patents, or formal company type (public/private) are disclosed in the available source material. The business appears to be an independent, micro-scale regional patisserie operating primarily through local retail and a single-brand online storefront.
