MARRON GLACE GRANITE

This marron glace granite is not a chestnut ice-cream but a “trou Normand” as we said in France, a palate cleanser as you said in English! The “trou Normand” has its roots in Normandy 400 years ago…

This very good palate cleanser made with marron glace may be used as well at the end of a pantagruelian meal, a dessert made in no time and with 2 ingredients only!
