The famous Clavel confectionery in Carpentras (Provence-France)
has existed for more than a century. Four generations have
succeeded each other to make “berlingots”, biscuits, jams in the
cauldron, candied fruits ... in the purest tradition, with recipes that,
for some, remain unchanged from the beginning. The photos have
the ambition to show the timeless aspect of this approach in which
Serge Clavel fits naturally.
