Founded in 1964 in Graulhet, Tarn, Maison Bruyère began as a French bakery specializing in cookies, biscuits, and cakes. Now led by the third generation, this family-run factory offers a wide range of premium biscuits made from traditional recipes passed down through generations. Maison Bruyère is IFS-certified and uses all-natural, high-quality, non-GMO ingredients sourced from trusted local and international producers.

These puffed and golden-brown Croquants de Cordes flavored with almonds are meticulously crafted according to traditional recipes from the Cordes-sur-Ciel region of France. The toasted almond pieces add a rich, nutty, and mildly sweet flavor to the cookies, complemented by delicate notes reminiscent of nougatine.

Try some delicious ways to enjoy these almond praline crisps:
