JEREMY PERRAULT
Read moreJérémy Perrault is a talented young patissier, chocolatier and pastry chef! Welcome to Jérémy's beautiful blue boutique in Saint-Julien-de-Concelles. Just a stone's throw from the Loire by bike and the beautiful Divatte river. It's well worth making the detour to this village to discover this craftsman's sublime creations. Through family tradition, Jérémy grew up in the restaurant business (through his parents) and chocolate-making (through his uncle and aunt). This was followed by a CAP in pastry-making and, one thing leading to another, a successful experience with Vincent Guerlais. But also within the prestigious "Relais Dessert" circle, with its demanding, qualifying training. In January 2022, Jérémy opened his own boutique to the immense pleasure of gourmets! He'll be creating intense chocolate éclairs, chocolate caramel entremets and tiramisu verrines. But also delicate macaroons, gâteau nantais, madeleines and sublime viennoiseries for children's snacks! Everything is handcrafted on site and 100% homemade. The chocolate range, with its 14 delicate flavors, as well as the grand cru chocolate bars, are all homemade. Other sweet treats include beggars and chocolate balls. We can't wait for the marshmallow teddy bears and other boxes of bite-sized chocolate treats announced for the festive season. Of course, Jérémy also caters for the needs of private and family events: weddings, receptions... A young, hyper-creative artisan with no shortage of new ideas and projects. His sweet treats take us far afield, while remaining right here in the village! And we like that...

LE POTAGER DE ST JULIEN
Read moreThe Potager de Saint Julien is an integration project run by the Fondation d'Auteuil. It enables some fifteen employees to gain access to work in organic market gardening and, through socio-professional support, to prepare for access to sustainable employment. Every day, the team prepares the soil, plants, sows, cultivates and cares for 60 varieties of fruit and vegetables, which are sold in the form of fresh seasonal baskets to consom'acteur members and professional customers (biocoops, restaurants, institutional catering, etc.). Becoming a Potager consom'acteur means doing good for the planet by choosing organic and local produce, and above all enabling men and women to bounce back and regain confidence in the future! So, we can't resist the temptation of batavias, Chinese cabbage, turnips, spring onions, fennel, celeriac, potatoes, carrots, zucchinis, basil, chives... and strawberries. Two production and collection sites, one in Bouguenais-Les Couëts, the other in Saint-Julien-de-Concelles.
