Product Description

Anis De Flavigny - Orange, Anise and Violet Flavored Candies From France 3 Pack 3x1.75oz

Imported straight from France
Delicious little sugar coated candies
Perhaps the oldest candies in France, mentioned in a document as early as 872!
Assortment of 3 flavors: anise, orange and violet

These little French candies, consisting of an orange, anise or violet flavored grain coated in sugar, are perhaps the oldest in France, mentioned in a document as early as 872!

In the 17th century, when these gourmet candies were manufactured by the Ursuline sisters, 6 months were needed to add and dry the successive coats of sugar.

Today, the factory is still situated at the heart of the ancient abbey in Flavigny (Burgundy), but the process is completed in only 15 days.

These gourmet candies make a wonderful gift. They are imported from France.
