Marron Glacé

Marron Glacé from Andalusia.

A selection of the best chestnuts candied in vanilla aromatized syrup and gently embellished with a fine glaze; Tasting Marron Glacé will generate the best possible positive experiences. 

This delicacy is created based on a traditional recipe, refined over years and using a selection of the best chestnuts candied in vanilla aromatized syrup gently covered in light glazing, inducing the best positive experiences upon tasting it.

Despite the difficulty of peeling chestnuts (anyone who has not done it, should try it) and the necessary patience to cook them without breaking more than half of them, subsequently slowly waiting for the syrup to reach the thread stage, the final result of all those steps filled with lots of patience and pride achieves as a reward one of the greatest sweet delicatessen that can be enjoyed nowadays.

La Molienda originated between 1987 and 1991 from a sociocultural animation experimental project of the Juvenile Association Ben-Uri

In this associative environment of caring for the common good (a concern for the future of the youths in rural areas), a period of research about the possibilities of creating a social cooperative company with any kind of professional activity was initiated. The idea was to make use of local resources, and would result in the creation of Molienda S.Coop.And.  

It is located in one of the most spectacular Andalusian landscapes, Genal river valley, in the beautiful village of Benalauría.
