About La Tarte Tropezienne

La Tarte Tropézienne makes the Tarte Tropézienne, a brioche filled with two cream layers and topped with sugar grains. The pastry was created by Alexandre Micka in Saint-Tropez in 1955, and the brand and recipe were registered in 1973.

Customers are retail buyers in its shops and online, and catering clients; the company also has a catering business that dates to 1991 and has served motor sports teams. Sales run through bakery-pastry shops, a restaurant in Saint-Tropez, corners at airports and department stores, and an online shop with click-and-collect and delivery via Chronofresh within France and Monaco.

The company was founded in 1994 and is headquartered in Cogolin, France. It has shops in Toulon, Aix-en-Provence, Paris, Nice airport, Megève and Courchevel, and in 2025 it announced its first international export, to Kuwait. It is described as a family-owned business run by Albert Dufrêne.

Product: Tarte Tropézienne cream-filled brioche pastry, sold in shops and online, with catering and restaurant services.
