Kornigou, also known as kornik, were unsweetened brioche made of wheat flour formed in a triangular shape reminiscent of a mitre or square cap, possibly in the style of the first bishop of Cornouaille, a historic province of Brittany.[1] It was not a popular dessert; by 1880, it was only sold by two bakers in Guilers on the feast day of St Corentin.[1] The kornigou were possibly shaped in the style of St Corentin's hair.[2]
