Hidden within its spiny shell, the chestnut is generally segmented. The best marrons glacés derive from those varieties that produce unsegmented fruits.
Commonly called marrons (sweet chestnuts), the chestnut tree's edible fruit offers invaluable nutritional value for refined culinary preparations. The marron glacé is the jewel of these preparations.
For almost 150 years, PELLORCE & JULLIEN have been preparing a marron glacé with round, soft, rich colours, free from artificial flavours and colouring, which they deliver for our festive pleasure.
