Value proposition

Specialists in premium food bases

At Masdeu we are dedicated to the production and commercialisation of a wide and creative variety of food bases designed to be filled, such as tartlets, vol-au-vents, macarons, wafers and mini waffle cones.

Our product portfolio is aimed at serving sector professionals, and on an international scale, an area of specialisation in which we have years of experience.

Our origins are thoroughly artisanal: a story that goes back to 1945 at a family bakery in the town of Puigdàlber, about 40 km from Barcelona. Years later, the company evolved towards the production of food bases marketed to hospitality customers. Finally, the third generation in charge took a third step by acquiring the company Mariebel in France in 2016.

With this move Masdeu came to have two production plants and an increased capacity and expertise in the production of puff pastries, the most characteristic type of product among those used to produce fillable bases.

For the food service sector professionals that we serve, the use of our bases for fillings minimises the necessary handling times and guarantees quality, hygiene, and the control of production costs.

Working for a long time in close collaboration with our customers has allowed us to understand their concerns when it comes to the preparation of pastry and confectionery products, by, for example, supplying a catering service in the shortest possible time, offering quality and healthy menus on a daily basis, or surprising consumers when presenting appetisers.

Our success depends on that of our customers, which is why we are willing and flexible to find effective responses to the needs and demands of their markets. We can adapt in terms of products, formats, and packaging, and even develop customised solutions to meet their needs.
