If you are looking for a little slice of French food this holiday season, below you will find links to authentic imported French delicacies. Some you’ll find on Amazon (hooray for fast shipping) and others will take a little longer and cost a little more on shipping, but are well worth it. Bon appetit!
Any foodie, Francophile or not, will know that this French finishing salt is la crème de la crème! A little goes a long way, so this small jar will last a while. Click here for authentic Fleur de Sel from Southwest France.
If you have spent any time in France, you will know that there is often a “pot” of mustard on the table to use as you wish with your meal. This “Moutard de Meaux” is a centuries old brand that is very popular in France, for good reason. It definitely does not taste like any mustard you will find in the States. Grab a jar here for your favorite mustard lover.
These brightly colored almond flavored candies from the South of France are called Calissons and can be found in many shops in Provence. Luckily, a candy maker in the States imports them so we can enjoy them here while pretending we are there!
These salted caramels are a bit of a cheat since they are not made in France. However, they are so good, made in Montana (my second favorite place) and use the same method and ingredients as the caramel makers in Northwestern France. Plus, they can be to your door in two days time! Click here to try them or find more options on the company’s website.
I think we can all agree that there is literally nothing better than French butter, especially Le Beurre Bordier. You can have this specialty butter shipped directly to your favorite Francophile via Le Gourmet Central. I promise it is worth every single centime!
If you are craving the unmistakable taste of French chocolates, you can order from La Maison du Chocolat. They have beautiful holiday gift sets right now. If you spend $150, you get free overnight delivery in the U.S.
Well, if you weren’t hungry when you started this post, surely you are now. I know I certainly am! Wishing you a very Merry Christmas filled with lots of French delicacies that transport you at first taste.
