A pastry chef by trade from the Périgord region, Roland Manouvrier is a renowned master ice cream maker. He handcrafts ice creams and sorbets with subtle, gourmet flavors, using fruit, flowers and spices. We love his jasmine, rose petal and violet ice creams, his espresso coffee, fleur de sel caramel, marron glacé, Périgord walnut and Périgord strawberry sorbets. No retail sales, but all the ice creams can be sampled in several restaurants and stores in the Périgord Noir.

It can be very hot in the summer in Périgord. So much so that you will surely be tempted to try a good artisanal ice cream. At this ice cream shop, everything is good! From the most classic flavours to the most audacious. It's a pity that there aren't any tables to sit at, but they still provide you with a spoon to enjoy your ice cream while you stroll around. It's served copiously and the price remains very correct. For a 100% Périgord experience, try the walnut ice cream, it's a delight.

At Jean-Christophe Gounou, Maître Artisan Glacier, you'll melt with pleasure at the immense choice of flavors and aromas, from the most classic to the most inventive. Passionate about his craft, Jean-Christophe sources his raw materials as locally as possible. His pistachio ice cream is a big hit, but his other flavors are a hit with gourmets, even in Périgueux, where they can be found. Frozen pastries, crêpes and waffles, fondues and chocolate soups, and milkshakes complete a generously iced offer!

The specialist in chocolate-covered nuts, based in Carlux since 1972, exports its chocolate bonbons with walnuts, hazelnuts, almonds, coffee, chestnuts, prunes, grapes, mango paste... No animal ingredients or fats (so no milk chocolate, which is vegan-friendly): pure cocoa butter. The delicacies are called Nogailloux or Truffinoix for the nuts, but the estate continues to make regional aperitifs based on nuts and brandies (plum, williams pear), which was its original activity.

It's a Montignac institution! And one of the best patisseries in the area. For several years now, pastry chef Adrien Arn has taken over the former "Chocoline", offering a vast selection of excellent viennoiseries, classic pastry acorns, chocolates and ice creams, all homemade. An indoor and outdoor tearoom area allows you to enjoy a gourmet break overlooking the Vézère river. The company also offers a catering service for special events, and special recipes for the various festive seasons.

Direct from the producer! IF you like ice cream and farm products made from milk (yoghurts, fromage frais, cheeses...), you'll want to visit this five-generation organic farm. Here, the animals are well fed and graze all day long, and the various ingredients are organic and local wherever possible. A picnic area is available for visitors. If you weren't in the area, you should know that the various products of this excellent farm are available in various Périgord stores.

This is a store like no other. A patisserie, yes, but run from start to finish by a single enthusiast, who does it all herself. Julie excels in the art of creating superb cakes, individual or large-scale, cupcakes or pièces montées, for a sweet treat or a big event. As her small boutique begins to gain notoriety, be sure to anticipate your request in the event of a birthday, wedding or other celebration for which you'd like a beautiful piece, made largely with local ingredients.

Their creations have the taste of the sweetness of a dream, with the scent of love... Nicolas and Jean have left their old lives behind to crystallize a childhood dream: to be bakers! Reinventing the profession, after training at the prestigious Pierre Vabret school (best baker in France).
Each gourmet creation has a story about a character, a place, a fact. And all this with products from short and PDO circuits. Taste their "Baguette du Périgord", at the "26 Brumaire"..
