A Presidential Delicacy
The international reputation of Montélimar nougats is largely attributed to Emile Loubet, Montélimar’s mayor and later President of France (1899–1906). Loubet’s generous offerings of nougats to royalty and foreign dignitaries at the Élysée Palace elevated their status, ultimately leading to the designation of Nougat de Montélimar as a Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) in 2003.
Storage Instructions
To maintain the freshness and quality of the nougats, store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
