Nougats Silvain, located at the foot of Mont Ventoux, offers a complete immersion into one of Provence’s most traditional sweets. Run by a family of “Paysans Nougatiers”, this is not just a shop but a place where you can understand the craft behind nougat production.

The site is labeled EPV (Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant), which highlights its recognized artisanal expertise. During your visit, you can discover how nougat is made, from raw ingredients to finished product, with demonstrations that bring the process to life.

The experience continues with a tasting of various nougats and confectionery, followed by a visit to the boutique, which showcases local products and specialties. There’s also a small ice cream area, making it an easy stop, especially in warmer months.

This is a great way to connect food, tradition, and local identity in a single visit.

👉 Local Tip: Try different types of nougat, including softer and more traditional varieties. The textures and flavors vary much more than most people expect.
