Information

Pregnancy is an important period in a woman's life and it is important that she takes care of her health and what she eats during this period. It is therefore important to think about what it is good to eat and what it is better to avoid. Calisson is a sweet and very popular treat in France, but is it a good idea to eat it during pregnancy? The answer is yes, under certain conditions. Calissons are made up of dried fruit, almond paste and honey, and are therefore relatively healthy for consumption as a treat. However, honey is to be avoided during pregnancy, as it can contain harmful bacteria. It is therefore important to check if the Calisson contains honey before consuming it. In summary, the Calissons are generally safe during pregnancy, provided that they do not have honey and that they are consumed in moderation. However, it is better to consult a doctor before consuming anything during pregnancy.
