Oreillons in light syrup
Half apricots for pâtisserie and food service — cut by hand, packed in a crown, calibrated to the gram.
Morocco's apricots reach the plant at full ripeness and are halved the same day. The house packs them in light syrup at 14–16° Brix, in tins sized for bakeries, pastry labs and catering kitchens.
100% hand-cut, crown-packed
Every oreillon is cut by hand and arranged in a crown inside the tin — the company's own published standard, and the reason the halves arrive intact.
