Once upon a time there was a lady called Françoise Jockin who was good at baking pies. With that talent she started working in her own kitchen 26 years ago and it immediately caught on. No wonder really, a cake is a fantastic idea: a complete meal in one compact dish. You can also vary infinitely with both savory and sweet ingredients, it always looks festive, is easy to pick up, and no preparation or finishing is required. Just warm up is enough.
