Description

Some recipes can’t be explained. They are passed down — from hand to hand, from generation to generation. Pauline’s Pralines were born this way — in the copper cauldron of the family farm in Valensole, where almond trees begin to bloom as early as February.

Pauline Jaubert has made this recipe her own. She still prepares it today, batch after batch, with the same care.

Caramelized almonds like they’re no longer made

At the heart of it, a whole almond from Provence. Harvested from our own orchards. Crisp, generous, with a naturally delicate flavor.

Each almond is coated in a fine layer of sugar, slowly caramelized in a copper cauldron. It’s this patient craftsmanship that gives the pralines their signature golden, amber hue — with no coloring, no preservatives, no shortcuts.

Two ingredients. Not one more.

Caramelized pralines just as they used to be — simple, pure, and impossible to resist.

A gourmet gift to give or to enjoy yourself

Pauline’s Pralines are presented in an elegant pink and gold tube, signed Terraroma — as beautiful to gift as it is to display on a table. A refined gourmet treat, perfect for any occasion.

Benefits & Nutritional Values

The Provence praline almond — the pleasure that nourishes

Behind the addictive crunch of the praline lies the nutritional richness of the Provence almond — one of the most complete dried fruits there is. Rich in mono-unsaturated fatty acids, plant proteins (10.8 g per 100 g), dietary fibre (6.9 g per 100 g) and antioxidant vitamin E, it nourishes and provides lasting energy — well beyond a simple confectionery.

The caramelised sugar that coats it brings its golden, indulgent note — to be enjoyed with pleasure and moderation, as any self-respecting treat deserves.

Recipe Ideas

Pauline's Pralines, far beyond snacking

Valensole praline brioche
Fold crushed pralines into a soft brioche dough before the final rise. During baking, they melt slightly and caramelise — a golden, crunchy brioche, perfect for a Provençal breakfast.

Dark chocolate and praline cookies
Add praline shards to a dark chocolate cookie dough. The sweet crunch of the caramelised almonds contrasts with the bitterness of the chocolate — a simple and irresistible combination.

Chocolate mousse with praline shards
Prepare a dark chocolate mousse and scatter praline shards just before serving. The lightness of the mousse and the caramelised crunch of the Provence almonds create a perfect contrast of textures.

Homemade Provence praline ice cream
Roughly crush the pralines and fold them into a vanilla or caramel ice cream base before churning. A dessert that celebrates the almonds of our orchards in their most indulgent form.

Praline financiers
Place whole or lightly crushed pralines on top of brown butter financiers before baking. They caramelise on the surface and add a golden crunch — the quintessential Provençal afternoon treat.

Praline crème brûlée
Scatter crushed pralines over a classic crème brûlée in addition to the traditional caramel — a contrast of textures and flavours that reinvents the great classic.

Provençal gourmet coffee
Serve a few whole pralines alongside a short espresso — the sweet, amber crunch of the caramelised almonds answers the intensity of the coffee. Simple, elegant, unforgettable.
