Maison Corsiglia - Candied Chestnuts / Marrons Glaces d'Aubagne France - 12 pieces - 8.46oz / 240gr Card box * For the preparation of these candied chestnuts, only the best ingredients have been selected: chestnuts, sugar, glucose, Bourbon vanilla pod from Madagascar. Corsiglia candied chestnuts are made by candying under tulle, which involves manually wrapping the raw chestnuts, two by two, in tulle muslin, in order to keep the chestnuts whole, to obtain a pearl of syrup in the heart of the fruit and to preserve the subtle taste of chestnut. This traditional know-how, a true criterion of quality, makes Maison Corsiglia the specialist in Marron Glace. In 1870 Andre Corsiglia began his career as a master confectioner in New York alongside his uncle Giovanni Batista Raffetto. Back in France, in 1896 he inaugurated his first manufacturing workshop in Marseille. This is where the House acquired its letters of nobility, in particular thanks to its candied chestnuts. Since then, four generations have passed and Maison Corsiglia continues to combine respect for tradition and innovation, as evidenced by the numerous patents filed to improve the process of making candied chestnuts.
