Artisan: C'est moi qui l'Effet, « La Main à la Pat’ », Sandy Barouk .
Sandy prepares artisanal cooking kits made only with organic products, local when possible and always carefully selected. And for brownie lovers, this kit is a must! Just add butter and eggs, a few minutes of cooking and you get a delicious and melting brownie. A true pleasure for gourmets...
Preparation tip: to get a melting brownie, 15 minutes short in the oven will be enough.... And to add a crunchy touch, don't hesitate to add some nuts of your choice....
Artisan chocolatier: Maison Guinguet.
A fun, festive format with this envelope containing delicious pralines coated in every color of chocolate.
Gourmets are in for a treat at a sweet-tooth aperitif dinner party!
Artisan: L'Attelier.
At this small shop in Guérande, a town in southwest France famed for its butter and salt, every product is made using traditional methods and all-natural local ingredients. Nuts are the common denominator in every recipe, but they add sugar, caramel, spices or condiments to create a wide range of flavours and textures.
For our box we chose organic caramelized cashew nuts seasoned with Kâmpôt pepper for their originality (a change from the more conventional cashews), surprising taste (the pepper-sweet contrast is outstanding) and super-extra-crunchy texture. These sinfully delicious morsels are too tempting to resist.
Craftman: Maison Guinguet.
Underneath this sausage-like appearance lies a delicious almond and hazelnut praline, with nougat, pistachio and almond pieces, coated in milk chocolate.
To be cut in thin slices that young and old alike can let melt under the tongue ... or just bite into it!
Artisan-chocolate maker: Maison Guinguet
These morsels of hazelnut praline with crêpe dentelle are coated in white chocolate to resemble the small round forms of Cabécou, a goat cheese typical of southwestern France.
Just thinking of our first tasting experience makes us want to go back for more...
Artisan-producer : Ferme Bio de Margerie
On the Valence plain, Ferme Bio de Margerie covers several hectares growing organic fruit to create their renowned fruit juices. With no production ambitions, they are one of the pioneers (over 30 years) to produce 100% organic juice with no additives, simply pressing the fruit to preserve the nutritional qualities of these sun-drenched southern fruits.
L'étonnant d'abricot is a blend of pure apple juice with a hint of apricot: personally, I've never tasted such good apricot juice. But it's up to you to find out..
Artisan: Lait Douceur de Normandie, Stéphanie Leblond and Sylvie Philippon, mermelade makers
To finish the tasting of our Normandy box, fresh whole milk (directly from the farm), sugar and ... patience (8 to 10 hours of cooking) are the keys to obtain this delicious taste of incomparable caramel that our craftswomen, vice-champion of the World of jams 2020 SVP, have obtained after many tests.
The result is a pure delight in which the gourmet spoon in love with originality and sweetness will dive. The milk jam can be enjoyed at any time on toast, buns, pancakes, or mixed with cottage cheese, yogurt and ... according to your ideas!
Artisan: Biscuiterie de Bretagne.
Frédéric Adam, founder of the Biscuiterie de Bretagne, managed to come up with a delicious recipe for crisp biscuits made of flour, sugar and egg white but no yolk—an amazing fat-free delicacy in the land of butter and Kouign-amann. And so the Craquantin Breton was born. Some years later, he added salted-butter caramel to the mix, and it quickly became an icon among Breton biscuits.
With the bonus of hazelnut slivers, these little temptations are sure to delight all sweet-toothed gourmands.
Artisan: Cocoripop.
Yes, there is homemade popcorn without colouring, without artificial flavours and 100% organic, crunchy as you like, slightly coated with caramel but retaining the taste and consistency of popcorn and with a very elegant coconut flavour. They are delicate, very gourmet and you will not notice that you have already finished the package... If you’ve got a sweet tooth, this treat will make you jump for joy!
Artisan: La Chocolatterie.
Of course, in a sweet box for gourmands with a refined palate, dark chocolate could not be missing. But we didn't want to put just any chocolate. And we found... the rare nugget! This chocolate is a pure wonder. Because in addition to being organic and from fair trade (rare!), the work done by this craftsman is just remarkable.
You may not know it, but a chocolate maker who roasts, crushes and refines cocoa beans himself to make his own chocolate is a (very) great rarity... Here the organic Madagascar bean produced in fair trade is used as a raw material. No palm oil added of course.
The use of coconut flower sugar instead of the classic cane sugar and the know-how of our craftsman confers a finesse to this 88% pure dark chocolate which will surprise you when, among many chocolate makers, this concentration in cocoa often gives a great harshness to the chocolate... You will tell us about it!

Every month, we have our new gourmet boxes tested by independent testers (we don't pay them! We just ship them one of our new gourmet basket…), specialized in the world of gourmet boxes to get external advice (we would obviously put 10/10 each time...) and make our latest gourmet baskets known, because we are proud of them, and because we must play the game of criticism....
This month, our French Sweet Gourmet Box in LaBoxduMois website: Sweet rating!
