Vanderbeek Pattiserie

The Mechelen-based Michel is the seventh generation of Vanderbeek bakers. Having established a first shop in Kortrijk in 1763, the Vanderbeekes later opened up in Mechelen (among other places). A stone's throw from Mechelen's Grote Markt, Vanderbeek is a modern patisserie which, besides selling a wide range of tarts, cakes and special types of bread, also does canapés, pizzas, quiches and other savoury items. The firm's speciality is its moon-shaped chocolates and cookies known as 'Maneblussertjes'.
