Tell us about Remember Provence

Remember Provence started as a home-based business selling artisanal products from the South of France in 1997. In 2013, all the products moved to a web-based platform. Owners Marie-Helene and Emmanuel Benoit are involved in all the operations, from purchasing to marketing to shipping. Having grown up in Provence, Marie Helene has an innate ability to separate the genuine, authentic French creations from those that might be mass-produced elsewhere. Please read more about how this business is promoting authentic made-in-Provence products.

Since 1948, the Marat d’Avignon® has specialized in Provencal table linens. This textile manufacturer continues to honour the past with traditional processes, high-quality materials and historical patterns. For example, Bastide print has calissons (the famous candy from Aix-en-Provence) in contrasting colours.

Here is a recipe:

Calissons d'Aix
A truly enjoyable treat to make and connect with bakers long ago. Patience will be your reward if you can let them sit overnight to set. And while this is a traditional recipe, it is by no means easy to master. So even if it doesn’t look perfect, it will taste just as delicious. Served alongside afternoon tea or at the end of a delicious evening meal, these sweet delicate Calissons will be a welcome addition to your baking repertoire.
