A lovely gift idea for the foodies in your life! The recipe of calisson, Provence's almond-shaped signature confection, dates back to the 15th century. This delicious specialty is made of candied fruit (mainly melon and orange) and ground almonds topped with a thin layer of white icing. Its taste is not unlike marzipan, with a fruitier flavor.
The origin of Arnaud Soubeyran dates back to 1837, the year Monsieur Arnaud and Mademoiselle Soubeyran married. The couple then went on to start one of the first nougat factories.
