Atelier Llorens is a small chocolate shop, biscuit shop and conservatory here in Pernes les Fontaines. For owner Laurence, “quality instead of quantity” is clearly the motto. She places great value on local and very high-quality ingredients and the sustainability of her products.

Quality instead of quantity

Before Laurence created Atelier Llorens, she and her husband ran a boulangerie here in our village of Pernes les Fontaines. Laurence made her fruit creations to use in her patisserie. These were so successful that she decided to devote herself entirely to this passion and to focus on the treasures of the region and traditional production in small quantities.

Local fruits, honey & almonds

All fruit, honey and almonds come from small producers within a 30km radius of Pernes les Fontaines. Laurence buys the fruit at the best harvest time and then processes it in her workshop. Her offer therefore adapts depending on the season and the availability of raw materials.

And chocolate?

For her chocolates, Laurence works with a company in Vaucluse that owns small areas of cultivation in South America and ensures the quality and sustainability of the cultivation methods there.

Gluten & Sugar

Laurence is careful to use as little sugar as possible in her pastries and fruit spreads. She also only uses gluten-free flour made from chestnuts or corn, which are also produced in the region.
