About Bigarreaux confits

Bigarreaux confits are candied cherries made from bigarreau-type sweet cherries. They are typically glossy, brightly coloured and firm but yielding, with a dense, sticky texture and a sweet, concentrated cherry flavour. The term refers to preserved candied fruit, not fresh cherries or a general cherry flavouring.

They are sold whole, often with or without stems, and may also be cut into pieces for use in baking and confectionery. Colour and texture can vary with the cherry and the candying process. The syrup-candied form differs from dried cherries and from cherries preserved in alcohol or juice.
