The way that Frenchman Richard Legay came out to his family (and yes that is his real name) was to join forces with his brother and open a Boulangerie in Paris’ ‘gay’ Marais district and bake very special bread. LeGay calls them ‘baguette magique’ which literally translates in to ‘magic wands’ which is the first time we have heard penises described that way.
Legay comes from four generations of bakers from Nantes a port town in Brittany and his father had run a bakery near a military barracks, and a long-running family joke involved soldiers’ requests for genitalia-shaped treats.
17 years ago Legay and his brother decided to make the request a reality and opened Legay Choc in Paris. Now it is a hot stop for locals and tourists alike who swamp the bakery for daily penis-shaped brioche, penis-shaped baguettes and penis-shaped tarts.

P.S. Legay’s special tip is : with the brioche, tear off the testicles one by one and dip them in your coffee
