Regional specialties to discover at all costs
How can we talk about confectionery without mentioning our calisson, an emblematic specialty of Provence if ever there was one?

Vary the pleasures by biting into our calissons. These little delicacies are also prepared with almond paste and fruit: let yourself be surprised by their softness and delicate fruity flavors!
Soft or hard, never without our caramels and our nougat! It is impossible to talk about our confectionery without stopping to mention the gourmand of our delicious caramels, made with fresh cream from Normandy and melted butter, and enriched with fruit flavors chosen according to our desires. Hard or soft, the recipe remains the same, only the cooking temperature changes! The secret of the texture of our nougat, more or less firm, is identical. On the other hand, the recipe alone is a promise of delight. Imagine honey, sugar, egg whites beaten until stiff, vanilla, almond and pistachio, and you get a candy with an irresistible melting crunch.
A specialty of Nevers, the Négus is a delicious handmade soft caramel, chocolate or coffee, trapped in a hard caramel . Presented in a beautifully crafted round tin box, these old-fashioned sweets brought up to date attract both gourmands and collectors. Also from Nevers, the crunchy nougatines coated in chocolate come in four flavors, in delightful colored boxes: dark chocolate, milk chocolate, blond chocolate and pistachio chocolate.
100% French artisanal production, of course!
All our recipes are made and constantly improved in our French workshop, combining exceptional know-how and creativity. made in France which has been going on for centuries for certain specialties!
All our confectionery is made using traditional methods, from ingredients chosen for their nobility and aromas. Do you want some examples? Our fruit pastes, melting to die for, are made using a traditional manufacturing process and a cooking process that releases all their aroma and reveals their authentic taste.
Our fruit marshmallows are made from 100% natural fruit purees and natural colorings, without any artificial flavors. And the almond paste then? After mixing blanched almonds, bitter blanched almonds, sugar syrup and icing sugar (yum just thinking about it!), the almond paste is molded into candy shapes, then coated with our homemade chocolate coating. To die for, we tell you!
For our candied apples or our Turrons, we also use a mixture of almonds and sugar to obtain balls of almond paste. They are then marked with a stamp to take the shape of an apple, an apricot or other fancy, before passing through an abacus. Some subjects are still molded and painted by hand with natural food colorings or icings of different colors! When we tell you that we have a taste for things well done, we don't do them by halves.
