Buttered Crumpets & Fig Confiture Kit

Tasting Notes of the Curator

Fresh crumpets toast to golden at the edges and remain tender inside—little pockets that catch the Échiré butter as it melts in. The butter is demi-sel: lightly salted, cultured, and famed for its depth and silkiness. It’s the kind of butter you eat with intent.

Confiture Parisienne’s Fig & Sweet Spices is not your average jam. Made in copper cauldrons in Paris, it weaves together ripe fig with cinnamon, clove, and a whisper of star anise. It’s gently spiced, never overwhelming—think fig tart filling, elevated.

What’s in this bundle

• Madge’s Classic Crumpets – 6 pcs
• Échiré Demi-Sel Butter – 250g basket
• Confiture Parisienne Fig & Sweet Spices – 250g jar

Serves 3–4, or one serious crumpet enthusiast over a few mornings.

Serving Suggestion

• Toast crumpets until the bottoms are crisp and the tops gently puffed.
• Spread with a thick slab of Échiré butter—let it pool into the crevices.
• Spoon over fig confiture, letting the warm butter slightly melt it into place.
• Optional: a sprinkle of sea salt, or a little lemon zest for brightness.
• Pair with black tea, a soft-boiled egg, or nothing at all.

A Small Ritual Worth Keeping

This isn’t just a breakfast. It’s a pause. A soft forkful of buttery, spiced calm. Whether you build it into your routine or save it for Sunday, this is one of those kits that turns a corner of the day into something generous and warm.
