Ooh la la, these Boissier Parisian Pate de Fruit Candies in a Large Blue Tin are the perfect gift for people you love or just a treat for yourself (don't worry, we won't tell anyone!) Maison Boissier, a premiere French chocolatier and confectioner that first opened shop in Paris in 1827, still makes their candies and chocolates the old fashioned, Parisian way. Each Pate de Fruit is individually wrapped in a colorful wrapper, placed inside a tin that would be at home in any lady's parlor from the 1800s to today! But what is a Pate de Fruit, anyway? Pate de fruit translates directly into English as "fruit jelly" - but these are definitely in a league of their own. Made with pure fruit pulps and natural fruit flavors (parfums, if you please), Boissier's Pate de Fruit has been made the same way for almost 200 years. Each full size fruit jelly comes individually wrapped in a veritable rainbow of flavors like apple, strawberry, peach, lemon, orange, and apricot. Why keep reading about these delectable candies when you could be eating (or "gifting"!) some of these 'licious French treats? Each large tin features full size individually wrapped pate de fruits. Also available in small size tins with unwrapped candies. Product of France. Imported.  Tasty! Copywriting created on Oct 30, 2013 by Sara © Le Panier Francais
