Handmade citron jam

A noble handcrafted citron jam

In the world of gourmet pleasures, handcrafted citron jam embodies the elegance of centuries-old expertise. Created in the workshops of Confiserie Florian, nestled in the heart of Pont du Loup, this jam stands out for its subtle fragrance and delicately tangy texture. The citron, a rare and majestic fruit often nicknamed the “Buddha’s hand,” offers a refined alternative to the traditional lemon. Its natural sweetness and floral aroma make it a prized ingredient for the most discerning palates.

Each 240g jar is the result of meticulous preparation, where the citron is slowly candied to preserve its organoleptic qualities. Sugar, pectin, and a hint of citric acid enhance the fruit without overpowering its character. The result? A jam with a balanced flavor, both invigorating and velvety, evoking Mediterranean delicacies at their finest.

The art of tasting: a gourmet ritual

Handcrafted citron jam doesn’t just accompany your morning toast. It confidently graces warm brioche, elevates the finesse of a crêpe with salted butter, or pairs with aged goat cheese for a bold gustatory experience. For lovers of haute cuisine, it may even become the secret ingredient in a signature dessert or a sophisticated cocktail.

Its aromatic profile, gentler than that of lemon, delights connoisseurs seeking new sensations. It embodies a discreet form of luxury—one that values quality over quantity, authenticity over artifice. Offering this jam as a gift means sharing a slice of culinary heritage, a sensory emotion that transcends trends and seasons.

A century-old craftsmanship dedicated to excellence

Since 1921, Confiserie Florian has upheld an artisanal tradition that continues to charm lovers of rare delicacies. Each jar of handcrafted citron jam reflects this commitment: rigorous fruit selection, slow cooking, and deep respect for ancestral recipes. This craftsmanship, passed down through generations, lends each creation a precious authenticity.

For a clientele who cares about thoughtful consumption and supporting local artisans, this jam represents more than just a product, it’s a love letter to flavour, tradition, and the French art de vivre. It aligns with a conscious approach to consumption, where pleasure rhymes with discernment and responsibility.
