What is a Calisson?

A calisson is a traditional confection from Provence, particularly associated with Aix-en-Provence. It is traditionally made from a smooth mixture of finely ground almonds and candied fruit, typically melon and orange, finished with a thin layer of royal icing.

Biscuiterie de Provence takes inspiration from those unmistakable flavors to create this wonderfully soft cake—a delicious way to experience a classic taste of Southern France in a new form.
