Regional groceries Specialties from Brittany Loire-Atlantique

On the Market Square, a new shop has opened, the Biscuiterie de Pornichet. Through the sweet and sour stalls, but always from the corner, crakous, aperitif snacks, caramels, Breton palets, buckwheat chips, but also Breton beers or other arranged rums... For a gift, a snack or an aperitif, there is only the embarrassment of choice at Vanessa and her team. But what we appreciate above all are the pastries prepared directly by the baker, how to resist a cake from Nantes, a Breton lighthouse or a kouign-amann, when we have our eyes on the stoves and the smell of fresh butter in our nostrils?

Born into a family of salt workers, Erwan Bourdic has created the Natursel brand. He offers a wide range of products from the Guérande salt marshes: coarse salt, fleur de sel, natural and flavored fine salt, pickled or natural samphire. Also flavored mustards, seaweed flakes, mixtures for cooking... To top it all off, he offers a visit to the salt pans, accompanied by a salt worker who will explain how the salt pans work. You can even collect salt or fleur de sel with him and taste the salicorne.
