5 gift ideas typically “Laval”

You want to stand out to your delegates by introducing them to products typical of the Laval region? Here are five original suggestions to satisfy all tastes.

1. Chocolate sweets at Talie Chocolat

To satisfy the sweet tooth, offer chocolate delights all made in an artisanal way.Talie Chocolat offers colourful and playful works of art that will delight the most discriminating palates. Our recommendation: caramelized almonds in maple syrup coated with four layers of chocolate and a fifth of cocoa!

2. In the purest tradition of fine wines at Château Taillefer Lafon

To satisfy wine lovers, Château Taillefer Lafon, the first vineyard in Quebec authorized to use the "Château" designation and the largest producer of grapes from noble vines called "vitis vinifera" in the province, is known for its Grand Frisson ice cider. Winner of several awards, this ice cider offers a subtle alliance between the unveiled flavours of skilfully vinified apples and the sweetness of the alcohol.

3. Give the gift of exoticism at Paradis des Orchidées

If you want to create a WOW effect with your guests, we have the perfect gift: orchids. You don't have to be an orchid lover to appreciate the elegance and sweetness of this plant. The largest orchid producer in Eastern Canada, Paradis des Orchidées, located in Laval, grows over 30,000 plants in 70 species and 800 varieties. The choice is yours!

4. A unique product at the Fromagerie du Vieux-St-François

For a gourmet gift, we recommend the Bouchées d'Amour from the Fromagerie du Vieux-St-François, an artisanal cheese factory specialising in the transformation of goat's milk. These handmade small bites of goat cheese covered with a seed oil flavoured with chives, herbs of Provence, garlic and parsley, or plain, are sure to be a hit.
