Quiche Lorraine has a long history, dating back to medieval times. Originally, it was a simple dish made from bread dough, cream, eggs, and bacon. Over time, cheese was added to the mix, and the bread dough was replaced with a flaky pastry, resulting in the rich and creamy dish we know today.

The inspiration for our Quantum Quiche Lorraine came from a desire to pay homage to the history of this classic dish, while also taking it to new heights. Our twist? We've added a sprinkle of nutmeg and a garnish of fresh chives, adding depth and a touch of freshness to the classic flavor profile.

What sets our Quantum Quiche Lorraine apart from other quiches is not just its unique flavor, but also its presentation. Unlike traditional quiches, which are usually served in pie slices, our Quantum Quiche Lorraine is designed to be served in individual squares, making it ideal for parties or gatherings. It's a small change, but one that adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to this humble dish.

In the end, it's the blend of tradition and innovation that makes our Quantum Quiche Lorraine so special. So why not give it a try? You might just find that it's the perfect way to elevate your next brunch or dinner party.
