Saint-Rémy Calissons

Discover the delicious calissons de Saint-Rémy, a Provençal specialty that delights lovers of refined confections.

These small, square-shaped sweets, characteristic of Le Petit Duc's Calissons de Saint Rémy, are a perfect blend of almonds, candied fruits, and sugar, creating an explosion of flavors in every bite. Calissons are made according to a traditional recipe that dates back to the 17th century. The history of Calissons de Saint Rémy is also ancient, as before the manufacturing era, in the late 19th century, sugar remained a rare commodity, used sparingly. We followed the same principle during the hours we spent studying recipes pre-dating the Calisson d'Aix to finally arrive at our Calisson de Saint-Rémy... lightly sweetened, extremely moist, and deliciously almond-flavored treats.

Each calisson is carefully prepared using high-quality ingredients. The almonds are finely ground to obtain a smooth and creamy paste, which is then mixed with sugar and candied fruits. The delicate, melt-in-your-mouth texture of calissons, combined with their sweet and fragrant taste, makes them a true culinary experience. Each bite transports you to the sunny landscapes of Provence, where these sweets have been cherished for generations.

Whether for a gourmet break, a special gift, or to accompany coffee or tea, calissons de Saint-Rémy are a perfect choice. Their elegant presentation also makes them an ideal gift for special occasions. Savor the authenticity and refinement of calissons de Saint-Rémy!
