The Occitanie Gourmet collective welcomes a new producer: the Biscuiterie Artisanale de Sommières, in the Gard. Its biscuits, sold under the Les Biscuits de Monsieur Jacques brand, join our Cookies & chocolate range, alongside chocolate from Bello & Angeli and Malakoff & Cie and shortbread from Le Petit Zeste. The category now brings together four artisans.
A biscuit bakery rooted in family recipes
François founded the brand in 2016, drawing on personal creations and family recipes. That heritage gives the range its character: authentic, consistent and distinctive. The bakery is based in Sommières, between Nîmes and Montpellier, in a part of southern France with a strong tradition of artisan food.
Its mission is simple: to supply professional customers with premium artisan biscuits made from quality ingredients, respecting tradition, flavour and the needs of the B2B market.
A range designed for fine food retail and hospitality
The bakery works for fine food retailers, hotels, gift box makers and specialist distributors. The range shown on its producer page includes:
- all-butter sweet shortbread;
- savoury cheese shortbread;
- nut croquants;
- financiers;
- Spoonettes, edible biscuit spoons, served for example with ice cream.
Classic or more creative flavours, with chocolate, spices or recipes inspired by the South of France, make it easy to build assortments for every type of outlet.
Organic ingredients, no preservatives
The biscuits are handmade with no preservatives or artificial additives. Each recipe is developed for consistent quality, a generous texture and authentic flavour, and the whole range is 100% natural. They rely on simple ingredients: flour, butter, sugar, eggs, chocolate, nuts, dried fruit and spices. Raw materials are organic and sourced mainly from local or European suppliers. The bakery follows a zero-waste approach that also looks at energy use and packaging. It produces 2 tonnes of biscuits a year and holds organic and Militant du Goût certifications.
Formats for resale and private label
The biscuits are available individually, in tasting assortments, in gift formats or as products designed for resale. Customised labelling is possible, including private label: an asset for gift boxes and specialist distribution alike.
One order with the rest of the collective
As with our eight other producers, Sommières biscuits are ordered through a single contact, on a shared order form, with one invoice. Visit the Biscuiterie Artisanale de Sommières page, then contact us to receive the catalogue.
