Nougatine
Artisanal production in copper kettles, where roasted nuts are folded into caramelised sugar.
Artisanal nougatine
Nougatine, this crunchy and flavourful confection, is made with simple, quality ingredients. It offers an explosion of flavours and textures that delights the palate.
The nougatine made by Silly relies on an artisanal process in copper kettles, where the nuts (roasted almonds or hazelnuts) are folded into caramelised sugar.
The cooking time, the working of the paste and its composition must be very precise in order to obtain a product of optimal colour, texture and taste.
Copper kettlesA unique production process
The magic of Silly nougatine lies in its unique production process. The hazelnuts are carefully selected and roasted to perfection. They are then folded into caramelised sugar in copper kettles, following an ancestral method that guarantees an incomparable texture and taste.
Once the paste reaches the right temperature and viscosity, it is passed between rollers that give it the desired shape: round, square or rectangular. The nougatine sheets can then serve as a base crust for all kinds of desserts.
Nougatine can also come in the form of granules as a topping for desserts.
