Things to see and do Montélimar

A coup de la Petit Smart for this artisan nougaterie that you cannot miss on the Provencal. In the Apiary de Provence, a professor established in 1938 and since then taken over by the Bonnieu family, it is the guarantee of quality nougats, manufactured to old in old copper cauldrons with selected ingredients with the greatest care. The welcome of sir is already a treat, but the contents of the many bags never leave us on our hunger! Start with the nougat of lavender honey and almonds of Provence that are found in papillotes or in the form of kilometre points celebrating the national 7, but still flavoured nougats, pâtes pastes, tendre, calissons, fruit pastes and marshmallows them… All the declination of sweets! We can assist in the manufacture of nougat. Do you know it takes 5 hours to produce 100 kilos of artisan nougat? Smells are so enticing that you are literally saliva!

For over 60 years, the Chaudron d'Or has been producing nougat in copper cauldrons with high quality products: lavender honey of Drôme, almonds of Spain, Sicilian pistachio, vanilla of Réunion. And that doesn't have a price! If it has one, it is still very reasonable for such quality. You are advised to visit the factory in order to treat your eyes and prepare your taste buds. We also love this, because while keeping the Pot, it innovates in communication and presentation. And under the language which festival! Let's take the tender nougats with fine chocolates, they are déclinent by black melting, moka, chocolate chocolate flavoured with orange. We also enjoy this incredible spread of nougat, developed by a better worker in France, the world's best-selling pastry champion, as well as the delicious reception in this gourmet house located in the city near the tourist office.

The house has existed since 1949. You can visit both production sites. The original site Jean-Jaurès and the new N 7 factory, in the south of the city, in the industrial area of Fortuneau. Two production modes. The opportunity to discover the story of the Nougat nougat imported by the Greeks via Marseille sweet first to the walnut, named Nux gatum which will drift into nougo and then nougat. Sweet is formalized in Montélimar in 1701! Today Gerbe of gold among the great nougatiers of Montélimar. You can make provision for the boutique of the whole range of soft, craquants, white, black, enrobés or natures…
