Did you say green apple? Its beautiful bright colour comes from the Granny Smith variety that we source locally in France. We select small fruit picked when ripened with a sufficient proportion of skin that gives its intense green colour to our green apple puree.
Product obtained with the edible parts of one or several types of fruits or vegetables, then sieved or finely chopped, without any notable concentration, with or without added sugar(s).

Green apple sorbet
Crystallised almonds
1 - Green apple sorbet
The day before, place the fruit puree in the refrigerator. Heat the water, make a dry mix of the saccharose, glucose and stabiliser. Pour this mixture in when the water has reached 45-50°C, stir and bring up to 85°C. Leave to mature for 6 hours minimum in the fridge. Mix together the syrup and the fruit puree (and the inverted sugar if needed). Mix well and churn. Keep at -18°C. Serve coated with crystallised almonds.
2 Crystallised almonds
Toast the almonds. Place the water and sugar in a pan, cook the syrup at 121°C then pour in the still hot almonds, remove from heat and mix to crystallise them. Use a drop of green colouring at the start of the cooking to accentuate the green shade.
