Cap sur Lorient

Products from Brittany are very famous: cabbage, artichoke, strawberries, apples etc. are a strong part of Brittany’s identity. Yet they don’t always have a good reputation. From the culture of organic Ginger in Côtes d’Armor to organic citrus fruits in Finistère, where standard agriculture has damaged the soils, the farmers from the region have been very innovative in the past years, to change mindsets and ways of producing. This #SNACK is a tribute to all those farmers who have so much to share. They were probably told in the past that their ideas would fail, yet they gave all they had, and now, their products are a unique and qualitative experience, with an eco-friendly label.
With their own hands, they manage to change the world, and they provide the future generations with ways to preserve our planet. I used substitutes to the usual ingredients for this recipe, like coconut sugar, to keep fat and glycemic index to a minimum.
