F. Doucet is famous for its Pâtes de Fruits, the shimmering, sugar-dusted fruit jellies. The skilled team makes them in small batches: stirring fresh fruit pulp in copper cauldrons, carefully slicing the candy into squares, and delicately coating them in sugar.
With 51% fruit, each Pâte de Fruit bursts with the luscious flavor of ripe summer raspberries. Traditionally enjoyed as part of an after-dinner or tea-time dessert course, these jelly treats are also great for gifting and snacking. Plus, unlike other candies, Pâtes de Fruits tolerate heat without melting or blooming.
