La Cornue founded in 1908 by Albert Dupuy. In order to create a furnace using a new type of natural gas being used in Paris, Albert Dupuy researched and founded La Cornue. He was able to create a much more effective oven than the others at the time by taking advantage of the circulation of hot air within the oven. The first oven was called Rôtisseuse-Pâtissiere La Cornue (La Cornue Roast and Pastry cook).In the 1950s, Dupuy was succeeded by André Dupuy and the company was modernised. At this time, the 5 Etoiles (5 Star) range was also introduced. In 1985, the company was further modernised following the takeover of Xavier Dupuy.
