Calissons are traditional French specialty candies dating back as early as the 12th century. These sweet and chewy delights are typically made with candied fruits, a soft blend of finely crushed almonds, melons, and candied orange peel. Calissons are believed to originate in the town of Aix-en-Provence in southern France. They have a very similar texture to marzipans, except they’re fruitier and have a melon-like flavor.
