Bringing home these edible treats is an easy and inexpensive way to share France with your loved ones when you return. And the bonus is that you don’t have to spend a lot of time shopping for your friends and family - you can buy most of these items all in one store.
Many of these products can be found in your neighborhood grocery store while you are here. I’ve shared my favorite locations below.
Great French food gifts that travel well are:
Macarons (I prefer @pierrehermeofficial - La Durée macarons are made in Switzerland! 😱)
Madeleines
Jam / Preserves
French mustard
Chocolates (my favorites are @jeanpaul_hevin and @patrick_roger_off )
Salt from the Guerande region
Piment d’Espelette
Vacuum packed cheese
Tea
Wine
Grocery stores that I suggest shopping at for these items are:
@monoprix as an easy and affordable grocery store option.
More unique and luxury food shopping can be done at:
Grande Épicerie at @lebonmarcherivegauche
@galerieslafayette food court and grocery
@lamaisonplisson
Farmer’s markets (marchés)
P.S. Please confirm your airline regulations before traveling with food internationally in checked luggage.
Bon voyage!
