DRAGÉES FROM CONFISERIE ADAM
A Living Heritage Company founded by Brothers Adam in 1912. The Confiserie Adam has since then been perpetuating its know-how according to tradition with a capacity to adapt itself to new trends. Its commitment to quality and creativity made its reputation on the national and international scales. Its dragées are certified Kosher.
The best Avola almonds from Sicilia give the most prestigious dragées coated with a very thin and delicate layer of sugar an unbeatable almondy taste. For your own pleasure and your events, Douce France has selected Avola Marquise with 45% almonds, Avola Sublime Royale, and Avola Sublime Imperiale with 53% almonds.
The exquisite nut-free dragées contain a minimum of 73% cocoa.
PRASLINES DE MONTARGIS FROM MAZET
Praslines de Montargis are the oldest candies in France. Their manufacturing process, unchanged since its creation in 1636, has been perpetuated for centuries in Montargis. The confectioner Léon Mazet is the one who set the standard when he wrote down the recipe which had been passed down orally until 1920. The simplicity of the toasted and caramelized almonds made their success.
For those who are lucky enough to enter the laboratory of Mazet factory when the Praslines are being prepared, it is an enchantment for all the senses. The sense of smell is flattered by warm, subtle aromas, the sight is satisfied with the shiny and crunchy brown of the caramel, and the taste which delights your taste buds... it is inimitable!
In order to adapt to current market trends, Mazet has recently updated the recipe resulting in praslines as crunchy and flavorful but containing less sugar. Over the years, they have also created new delicacies around almonds and hazelnuts with different flavours like the grelons, givrettes, mazettes, and lately the rose and almond treats. You are spoilt for choice!
