Product Description
This sweetened puree of chestnuts is delicately flavored with vanilla. It is a wonderful addition to pastries with its nutty richness and creamy texture. Mix chestnut puree into butter cream frostings, fondants, fillings of all types, and cake batters or just eat plain with creme fraiche.

Not your father's chestnuts January 26, 2005

This sweet and smooth spread is a delicious topping for your morning brioche or your evening ice cream alike. If you have never tried this before, it is like a honey of creamed chestnuts. Even that description does not do it justice. Perhaps try to imagine a cross between Nutella and honey, but with no hint of chocolate. It spreads easily over breads, though I highly recommend you try it on something that is not coarse like American toast and not too sweet like a muffin. Let the flavor of the spread speak for itself by trying it on a sweet roll, brioche, or similarly basic bread. It is difficult to find in the United States, so I am delighted that Amazon sells a variety of Creme de Marrons.
The container itself is good, resisting cracks or damage during daily wear and tear. Since this is a food that appeals to children, it makes sense to not have it packaged in glass or another breakable material. This tin and its classic paper label are so darling that I cannot bear to part with it so I wash it out to reuse as a pencil cup.
This food product is not recommended for someone with blood sugar tolerance issues or trying to lose weight.
