Since 1923, Galiléo Venturini and his descendants, Thierry and Cyril Mauro, have made their patisserie a Grasse institution. Their specialty, the orange blossom fougassette, is a local staple. From generation to generation, the artisan tradition lives on, offering lemon scalds, nougats, sugared almonds, pumpkin tarts, brigidinis, aniseed cookies and chocolates. With each bite, a journey through the history of Provençal pastry, where flavors intermingle to the delight of gourmets.
