🍬 Calissons d'Aix du Roy René – Diamond box (18 pieces / 235 g) 🇫🇷
The sweet symbol of Provence, between tradition and commitment 💛
For several centuries, the Calisson d'Aix-en-Provence has embodied the excellence and delicacy of the South of France.
In the Roy René workshops, each confectioner perpetuates this ancestral know-how: a melting paste of finely ground almonds , candied melon from Provence and orange peel , delicately placed on a thin wafer and topped with a delicately crunchy royal icing .
Today, this historic recipe stands out even more thanks to a strong commitment to the Provençal terroir :
💛 50% almonds from Provence in each calisson, for a unique authenticity and taste intensity .
Presented in an elegant diamond-shaped metal box , these calissons combine tradition, refinement and durability — an ideal gift or a pleasure to share, imbued with the sunshine of Provence 🌞
🌿 A commitment to the land and nature
The Confiserie du Roy René plays an essential role in the revitalization of the almond industry in Provence .
As a founding member of the dedicated steering committee, she participated in the planting of thousands of almond trees and the creation of an agroecological almond grove around her factory in Aix-en-Provence.
A sustainable approach, which unites taste, heritage and respect for biodiversity 🌳🐝
