Calisson Museum
Take a visit to the place where they make Provence's most famous confectionery - Calissons
Located not far from Aix centre, this museum and shop explains a little about the history of how this unusual sweet is made.
Calissons are lozenge shaped and made from a fruit paste with a melon flavour, topped with royal icing.
Videos, display cases, sights and smells will tantalise your taste buds on a visit here and you can also make your own batch of sweets at the end of your visit.
