Gourmet products local specialties and wines Biot

A new gourmet jewel has recently conquered the rue Saint-Sébastien: the Marc Pignot Saint-Saëns chocolate factory. After many years in the capital, the artisan chocolatier and his wife Gordana have moved south to offer a wide range of ganaches, pralines, truffles, coated fruits, mendiants, macaroons and calissons, not forgetting the bûchette, a praline delicacy with a mixture of crushed nuts and nougatine. Low-sugar, low-fat creations.

Food lovers, there's no need to wait for market appearances to fill up on harvested honey - it's now on sale in Biot! Bee Riviera has opened its boutique opposite the town hall, filled with charm and magnificent stone walls, where jars of 100% local honey can be found, as well as mead and jams, not forgetting Catherine Brothier's delicious ZK chocolate spread. The honey producer has also entered into a partnership with Héloïse Gaidoz, a talented pastry chef from Biot.

Creating an authentic, richly-flavored spread without palm oil or artificial flavors? That's the bold challenge set by Catherine Brothier and her brother Yves Zuconi. These two gourmands with a passion for cooking have created a richly-flavored spread, with fine Piedmont hazelnuts, real vanilla and fair-trade cocoa beans. Many top hotels offer this wonderful spread in their establishments. You can find it in Biot at Catherine's partners, the Bee Riviera boutique.
