On the heights of Lorraine, the Ragald family has been growing manioc for five generations. They are proud to pass on this ancestral know-how. Here, everything is done in the most traditional way in the world: cassava is planted, cultivated, uprooted and worked to transform it into flour. Different stages follow one another: the tubers are grated and peeled to extract the pulp, before being cooked in large wood-fired stoves. Ten minutes later, the famous cassava, the Caribbean galette, is ready to be eaten.

Marie-Galante's battery syrup is reputed to be excellent, and the Délices de Siblet syrup only confirms this. There are a dozen syrups available in a variety of flavors. Siblet's syrup has a consistent taste from one year to the next, and keeps for a long time. At Patrick Maurin's factory, you can watch the cauldron at work, while receiving explanations (always with a smile) on the process of making battery syrup. You can also taste the syrup and then make your purchases in the store, where pastries are sometimes available.
