What makes it different
A salt with a soul.
Not all salt is created equal. Here's why chefs, bakers, and home cooks choose CANNES SALT.
Learn our storyThe Art of Salt
From Ocean to Table
Two thousand years. Four steps. One extraordinary salt.
Channel the Sea
Atlantic tides are guided into a labyrinth of shallow clay basins. Here, the ancient dance of water and earth begins anew with every tide.
The clay-lined basins, some dating to Roman times, create the perfect environment for crystallization.
Let the Sun Work
For weeks, the Atlantic sun and coastal winds evaporate the water. As salinity rises, fleur de sel crystals bloom on the surface.
Fleur de sel forms only under specific conditions: gentle wind, warm sun, and precise salinity. Nature's rarest salt.
Harvest by Hand
At dawn, our paludiers wade barefoot into the marshes. Using traditional wooden rakes, they gather each precious crystal.
Each paludier harvests only 1-2 kg of fleur de sel per day. The same technique, for two thousand years.
Pack with Care
Nothing added. Nothing removed. Each batch is hand-packed within days and sealed in recyclable kraft pouches.
From the marsh to your kitchen in under two weeks. Zero additives, zero processing, zero compromise.
Trusted in professional kitchens.
From Parisian bistros to Michelin-starred tables in Lyon, chefs reach for CANNES SALT as the finishing touch. Coarse crystals that crackle, dissolve clean, and bring out the best in every ingredient.
"It's the only salt I keep within arm's reach of the pass."
Fleur de Sel
Crystals that catch the light.
Generous, irregular crystals that grind beautifully and finish with a delicate crunch. One kilogram of pure ocean � enough to elevate hundreds of dishes.

Born where the ocean kisses the land.
Our salt comes from the salt marshes of Gu�rande, a landscape shaped by two millennia of tradition. Atlantic tides fill the clay basins; the sun does the rest. What remains is gathered by hand, exactly as generations have done before.
