Lei calissoun
The candy diamond is a well-known specialty from Aix en Provence, tradition of the XVth century, based on candied melons, almonds and orange peel. Its shape is recognizable among all, but it’s not enough to look like a calisson to be truly one. There are counterfeits!
These are authentic, made in the Pays d'Aix by a creative confectioner, a calissonnier. He’s know-how is recognized by the Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant French label.
There is also a festival dedicated to them: the calissons blessing. Every year at the beginning of September, the Archbishop of Aix en Provence proceeds to the religious ceremony. On this occasion, Provencal people in traditional clothes distribute calissons to the public. It's a great event!
For a gift!
Make your loved ones happy by offering this box of one of the traditional French desserts. Just add a "chic" bag or a « prestige » box to get a very refined gift presentation. Just add it to your cart. We will protect it with a bigger box during the expedition.

I missed calissons badly from my younger days in France. This assortment is delightful, consisting of both the traditional calisson, and a newer version that uses fruit flavoring in the glace. Very nicely done.
