Vinsobres Almond and Chocolate Croquettes

In 2018, to pay tribute to the Croquettes de Vinsobres, a traditional Provençal biscuit, the Biscuiterie de Provence created the almond and chocolate Croquettes de Vinsobres.

A version with 19% almonds and 19% chocolate for the 110th anniversary of the Croquette. Enjoy the tradition with added chocolate! The recipe remains unchanged, only a touch of chocolate indulgence has been added! The traditional biscuit now has a variation with 19% more chocolate to enhance this Provençal heritage recipe and bring novelty to the traditions! At first bite, the biscuit is crunchy, which gives it its name. Very quickly, the croquette melts, leaving a delicious taste of almond and dark chocolate in the mouth...

In 1908, Henri Chauvet, a baker in Vinsobres, a small village in the Drôme Provençale, created the Croquettes de Vinsobres: small, lightly sweetened biscuits made with almonds and notably crunchy. In 1985, the Bédouin family bought the recipe and continued the traditional production. Now, it is within the Biscuiterie de Provence, the 6th generation of the BÉDOUIN family, that the Croquettes de Vinsobres are made. It is 110 years later that the factory decided to pay tribute to this typical Provençal biscuit by creating a variation: the almond and chocolate Croquettes de Vinsobres.
