Diane de Poytiers 18 Calissons 230g

Diane de Poytiers calissons are a true symbol of Provence. Much like the renowned calissons d’Aix, these exquisite confections that taste slightly like marzipan are a cherished part of the 13 traditional Provençal Christmas desserts.  
Made using a traditional recipe, calissons blend ground almonds, candied fruit (typically melon and orange), and sugar into a smooth, fragrant paste. This mixture is carefully rolled out and cut into distinctive oval shapes, reminiscent of an almond or a boat. Each piece is then delicately coated with a thin layer of royal icing, creating its signature glossy finish. The calissons are gently dried in a low-temperature oven to enhance their flavours while maintaining their soft yet firm texture.  
Presented in an elegant diamond-shaped gift box, this selection contains 18 calissons, a perfect gift for any French food lover!
