Calissons - French Traditional Candies From Provence Assorted Colors 12pc, 4.95oz

Description

Calissons are traditional diamond shaped candies consisting of a smooth, pale yellow, homogeneous paste of candied melon and ground almonds topped with a thin layer of white icing (royal glaze). Calissons have a texture not unlike that of marzipan, but with a fruitier, distinctly melon-like flavor. Calissons have been traditionally associated with the town of Aix-en-Provence, in the south of France, for more than 6 centuries! This 4.95oz box contains 12 calissons made by Arnaud soubeyran, one the most recognized nougat and calissons experts since 1837. These calissons are all natural. They make a perfect gift! This box of calissons is imported from France.
