behind the brand: la cerise sur le gâteau

If you received the August Box, you might recognize the brand La Cerise sur le Gâteau. Today, we’re excited to share the story behind this brand and explain why we chose it for this Box.

La Cerise sur le Gâteau is a French brand, founded by Anne Hubert. The brand blends tradition, sustainability, and modern design. Growing up in Normandy, Anne was deeply connected to nature, where sustainability was a way of life. Her passion for textiles led her to study textile design in Paris and work as a stylist and set designer. This experience inspired her to study textile design in Paris and work as a stylist and set designer. This experience inspired her to create her own collections, which quickly gained attention and led to a pop-up shop at Le Bon Marché.

The brand operates from a refurbished factory in Alsace, where a dedicated team crafts eco-friendly products using natural and often organic materials. La Cerise sur le Gâteau’s success is built on strong relationships with loyal Portuguese artisans, supportive boutiques, and a talented creative team, all of whom share a commitment to quality and sustainability.

A key figure in the brand’s journey is Sandrine, Anne’s creative partner. Together, they co-create each collection, ensuring that every piece reflects the brand’s unique identity.

Today, La Cerise sur le Gâteau continues to evolve, offering a wide range of eco-responsible home linens and accessories made in Portugal. Their products combine traditional French craftsmanship with modern design, standing out in a market dominated by fast fashion.

La Cerise sur le Gâteau remains dedicated to its founding principles, proving that beautiful, functional products can be made without compromising on ethics.
