SHARE THE 'JOIE' OF THE HOLIDAYS WITH LA MADELEINE'S SEASONAL MENU
French-inspired bakery and café takes the stress out of holiday hosting with fully prepared meals and giftable treats
DALLAS -- This holiday season, la Madeleine is making it easier than ever to be the perfect host, with a new holiday menu featuring take-and-heat group meals and a festive lineup of bakery treats that transform anyone into an effortless entertainer.
According to a survey from the National Restaurant Association, 82% of people choose to dine out or order in during the holidays to reduce stress, and 72% do so to spend more time with family and friends instead of cooking, making La Madeleine's new holiday offerings especially timely.
"At la Madeleine, we believe the holidays should be spent around the table, enjoying time and delicious meals with friends and family, not stressing out over cooking and cleanup," said John Dillon, CEO of la Madeleine. "Our holiday meals allow the hosts to enjoy the celebrations of the season alongside their loved ones, with easy, elegant options for beautiful holiday entertaining."
Available through Dec. 24, fully cooked and ready-to-heat group meals serve up to 10 people and include everything needed for an impressive holiday spread: applewood smoked ham or oven-roasted turkey breast with mushroom sauce, cranberry-apple stuffing, cranberry-apple relish and a choice of two additional sides. Meals also include a fresh-baked baguette and a choice of mini pumpkin or pecan tartes.
Beyond entertaining, la Madeleine's bakery case is the star of the season for gift-giving. The café's festive French pastries and breads — including macarons, Cinnamon Christmas Tree Brioche, Christmas Tree Linzer Cookies, Bûche de Noël and more — make memorable, delicious gifts to thank a teacher, surprise a coworker at a cookie exchange or treat neighbors.
For those looking to take a break from busy holiday happenings, la Madeleine's cozy cafés offer seasonal entrées, available through Dec. 31, including:
Turkey or Ham Holiday Sampler: Applewood smoked ham or roasted turkey breast topped with mushroom sauce, served with cranberry-apple stuffing and green beans almondine
Turkey Cranberry Melt: Roasted turkey breast, cranberry-apple stuffing and provolone cheese on a cranberry roll with mayonnaise and cranberry sauce
The bakery case also features Snickerdoodle Cookies, Snickerdoodle Crème Brûlée, Tiramisu and other seasonal delights. Fan-favorite items like Pumpkin Praline French Toast or Crêpes and Parisien Hot Chocolate remain available through January 2026.
