Chestnut Puree - Unsweetened, All Natural

Since 1885, Clement Faugier has been the gold standard in French chestnut products. All of their chestnuts are harvested from southeastern France’s Ardeche region, where their regional authenticity is protected by an AOC. Their chestnut puree, made according to a recipe that dates back to the company’s earliest days, is a pure expression of chestnut: Made with only chestnuts and a small amount of water, it’s an ideal ingredient in a wide variety of culinary applications.

In savory applications, it adds depth to soups (especially with mushrooms or root vegetables), enriches stuffings or purees for poultry and game, and can be folded into risottos or pasta sauces for a nutty, slightly sweet undertone. It's also great for blending into spreads with herbs or mascarpone for crostini.

In desserts, unsweetened chestnut puree serves as a blank canvas—perfect for adding natural sweetness and body to cakes, mousses, or Mont Blanc-style desserts. Mix it with whipped cream and sugar for a simple chestnut cream, or bake it into tortes and souffles. Because it’s not pre-sweetened, it offers flexibility to control sugar levels in recipes.
