This Black Nougat (Nougat Noir) is the boldest expression of Provençal sweet-making tradition. Crafted with 65% almonds and 16% all-flower honey from Provence (PGI), it’s a masterpiece of balance and texture. The honey is slowly caramelized until it reaches a deep amber hue, enveloping the roasted almonds and pistachios in a glossy glaze. Each bite delivers a symphony of flavors — nutty, floral, and delicately bitter — that evolves on the palate with remarkable depth. Its crunch is satisfying, its aroma rich with honey and toasted nuts, and its finish beautifully full-bodied. Both rustic and refined, this nougat embodies the warmth of Mediterranean craftsmanship, celebrating the natural generosity of Provence in every shard.
After-Dinner Indulgence: Pair with espresso, dessert wine, or herbal tea.
Cheese Board Accent: Wonderful alongside goat cheese or sharp aged cheeses.
Dessert Upgrade: Crumble over ice cream or serve with poached fruits.
Gifting Idea: A refined and traditional treat to include in any gourmet selection.
For nearly two centuries, Maison Brémond Fils has honored the culinary traditions of southern France. Their nougats are made according to the authentic Provençal recipe, using Provence PGI honey — a hallmark of regional excellence. The process is meticulous: almonds and pistachios are hand-prepared, honey caramelized in copper cauldrons, and everything set into unleavened bread made from potato starch, water, and olive oil. The result is pure indulgence — amber, crunchy, and full-bodied, carrying the very soul of Provence.
Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and humidity. Once opened, keep in an airtight container to preserve its crunch and aroma. Properly stored, it will retain its texture and flavor for weeks of gourmet enjoyment.
