Have you ever wondered what a real French breakfast is like?

The traditional French bistro breakfast is light, sweet, and typically includes both coffee and chocolate. (what a dream come true, right?)

Wake up like a Parisian, without leaving the comfort of your own home with cafe au lait and flaky butter croissants and Pain au Chocolat and exquisite Pillivuyt porcelain pieces for your table. Your guests will think they've been transported to a sidewalk café in Paris.

In France, equal parts of steamed milk and strong hot coffee are combined to make the perfect mellow beverage known as a café au lait. In Spain, this identical drink is known as café con leche while Germans call it milchkaffee.

French Café au Lait Recipe

Ingredients

1 part hot strong coffee, French roast

1 part milk, steamed

DIRECTIONS

Into a large cup, pour equal parts of strong hot coffee and steamed milk, reserving the foam.

Stir.

Spoon reserved foam on top and serve hot.

If you're artistic, you might want to try your hand at using the steamed milk to create latte art, or simply give it a sprinkle of cinnamon.

How perfect are these Brasserie Cafe au Lait Bowls from Pillivuyt. I adore the classic European coffee bowl shape so much! The Brasserie Pitcher is so adorable too for milk.

I introduced you to their Brasserie Collection last Friday and you dears loved it so much with over 100 of you saving my Instagram post. The Brasserie Collection is one of Pillivuyt's most recognized patterns. Created in the 1920's for restaurants and cafes' who wished to have their menus on their dinnerware, this design is printed on a decal and then applied by hand. After the decal is applied, the piece is fired for a third time and the design is baked into the glaze.

The Brasserie collection of dinnerware and cookware by Pillvuyt features sidewalk cafes, Parisian nights, and hints of Hemingway's Moveable Feast. Each piece is crafted from advanced porcelain designed to be shatterproof, microwave, oven, freezer, and dishwasher safe. Durability is key with Pillvuyt. Pillivuyt products are 100% lead and cadmium-free and made entirely in France. The quality and workmanship of each piece of Pillivuyt porcelain is truly so exceptional.

The Pillivuyt Factory has been producing fine porcelain in the heart of the Berry region for 200 years, making it home to some of the oldest and most prestigious porcelain brands in France. Pillivuyt represents a tradition of excellence, handed down from generation to generation of master artisans and industrial porcelain makers.
