Since 2018, the Atelier de Géraldine has been reviving these Swiss sweets, which were already made in Saint-Amour in the 1960s.
As a child, Géraldine remembers preparing good bricelets with her grandmother and her cousins, at the time of the end of the year celebrations.
Today, she makes these Swiss biscuits entirely by hand in authentic Swiss bricelet irons according to tradition.
> Deliciously flavoured sweet bricelets: walnut and honey, vanilla, lemon, cinnamon, chocolate, blueberry, almond, raspberry, coffee, orange.
> A range of savoury bricelets is also available: comté, persillade, Nyons olives, goat's cheese, Bleu de Gex, Bresse pepper.
Géraldine is keen to work with local, quality products:
- PDO butter,
- flour from the local flour mill,
- eggs from free-range chickens
- fruit from organic farming
- working with local producers
The vast majority of products are carefully selected locally or in France.
Products from the Jura and Bresse regions are highlighted: bricelets with Comté cheese (Balanod cheese factory), Bresse pepper, Bleu de Gex or walnut and honey (Gaec Ecuyer in Digna)!
The laboratory is also committed to an eco-responsible approach by operating largely independently thanks to solar panels.
O waste: the broken bricelets are recovered and offered for sale... also nice for the aperitif!
