The "Chocolate & Saffron" Linotte Tourangelle celebrates Touraine saffron, an exceptional spice cultivated in the region since the Middle Ages.

Its soft cocoa batter is dotted with shards of 66% Mexican dark chocolate, offering deep and subtly spiced notes, blended with 40% Ghanaian milk chocolate, with delicate, comforting cocoa accents.

At the heart of this creation, the two chocolates come together in a generous fondant, where the intensity of the dark cocoa and the creaminess of the milk chocolate gently reveal the warm, subtle notes of saffron. Whole Piedmont hazelnuts complete the composition, adding a satisfying crunch and lightly roasted aromas.

A refined and indulgent Linotte, where chocolate and saffron engage in a delicate dialogue, paying a heartfelt tribute to the terroir.

ORGANIC WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR

All our Linottes Tourangelles are crafted using organic whole wheat flour, stone-ground and produced locally in Touraine.

This exceptional flour comes from the family farm of Philippe Joubert, established in 1984 in Betz-le-Château by his father, and carries forward a time-honoured artisanal know-how, passed down from generation to generation.

ORGANIC FREE-RANGE EGGS

For the preparation of our Linottes Tourangelles, we use exclusively organic, free-range eggs produced by the farm “L’Œuf Bio de Touraine” in Manthelan, just 40 minutes from our workshop. This close proximity allows us to ensure freshness, quality, and traceability in every creation.

ORGANIC CHURNED BUTTER

We use exclusively organic butter, crafted in traditional barrel churns from the finest milks collected in Brittany. Through this slow churning and careful kneading, the butter achieves an exceptional quality. It is this dedication and expertise that give each Linotte Tourangelle its singularly melting texture and unparalleled flavor.

FINE CHOCOLATES

Cornerstones of our creations, the chocolates we use in our recipes are crafted in France and Belgium from cocoa beans sourced from the finest origins, meticulously selected for their aromatic richness and distinctive character.

Produced through sustainable supply chains, these exceptional chocolates lend each of our confections a unique flavor signature, where every note is carefully designed to deliver a tasting experience that is both refined and unforgettable.
