Nougat Le Chaudron d'Or, Nougat factory and children's museum in Montélimar, France
Le Chaudron d'Or manufactures traditional nougat in copper cauldrons using lavender honey from Drôme, Spanish almonds, Sicilian pistachios, and vanilla from Réunion.
Founded in 1949, this factory maintains its production methods and creates approximately fifty tons of nougat each year with a team of ten specialized workers.
The factory represents Montélimar's confectionery heritage through its production of classic white and black nougat varieties alongside modern chocolate-infused innovations.
Visitors can take free guided tours of the manufacturing workshop from Monday to Saturday, with production demonstrations occurring during morning hours.
The factory developed a specialized nougat spread created by a champion pastry chef, combining traditional ingredients with contemporary confectionery techniques.
