Checkerboard Calissons
Description
Discover our delicious checkerboard of calissons and Provence fruit jellies, a perfect combination of flavors and colors. This exquisite assortment offers you the best, with the irresistible sweetness of calissons and the fruity freshness of the fruit jellies.
Calissons are a Provençal specialty, made from a base of finely ground almonds mixed with sugar and candied fruits. Their square shape, characteristic of Petit Duc Calissons, and their melting texture make them refined confections enjoyed by all. The fruit jellies, on the other hand, are prepared from ripe and juicy fruits, slowly cooked to preserve their natural flavor.
Before the manufacturing era, at the end of the 19th century, sugar was still a rare commodity, used sparingly. We followed the same principle during the hours we spent studying pre-Aix calisson recipes to finally create our Saint-Rémy Calisson... lightly sweetened, extremely soft, and with a delicious almond taste.
Our checkerboard of calissons and fruit jellies offers an exceptional tasting experience. Each piece is carefully crafted with top-quality ingredients, selected with care to guarantee an explosion of flavors in your mouth. You will find a variety of fruity flavors, such as apricot and orange pulp from Provence, melon, blueberry pulp, William pears from the Hautes Alpes, and raspberry.
Whether for a gourmet break, a special occasion, or an elegant gift, our Calissons Damier are perfect. The Calissons Damier come in a metal box, an ideal packaging for a gift or to present on the dessert table.
