Our story began in the small village of Beaufort-sur-Gervanne, at the heart of the Vercors Regional Nature Park. Our organic, fair trade chocolate factory is at the end of a pretty little winding road that leads away from the village. Its name rings through the surrounding garrigue: the Frigoulette.

We manufacture and package our own superb range of chocolate in a cool, bioclimatic workshop, using 'Premier Grand Cru' cocoa from a fair trade plantation on the island of São Tomé and Príncipe in the Gulf of Guinea. The best cocoa beans in the world!
Since the very beginning, traceability and responsible practices have been paramount for us, and with my team we create 'real chocolate', chocolate with the organic, fair trade label, produced according to environmentally friendly practices and ensuring the producers from the island are given a decent wage (with my partner KAOKA). Frigoulette has been certified a Bio Partenaire®, and fair trade company by the Ecocert organisation.

The Frigoulette workshop doesn't use animal fats and only makes pure cocoa butter chocolate, without the use of palm oil and gluten-free.

The Ateliers Weiss is a lively and accessible place, offering:

1- The Chocolate factory walkway tour (closed temporarily).
Accompanied by a member of the Weiss team as your guide, come and unveil the secrets of the Chocolate factory. An enjoyable experience and new discoveries guaranteed!

2- Fun, gourmet activities

Implanté dans un ancien Moulinage, autrefois dédié à la mise en bobine de la soie, d’où le nom du lieu-dit "Moulinon", vous "redécouvrirez" la grande et majestueuse "Salle aux verrières" pouvant accueillir une centaine de personnes. Elle a été restaurée, aménagée pour vous permettre de déguster des parfums de glaces parfois audacieux, parfois doux. Vous pourrez également déambuler dans l'espace découverte qui vous présente l'entreprise ces spécificités et la fabrication des glaces.

Juste à côté du siège et de la production, ce lieu tant attendu depuis une dizaine d’années, représente tout le travail et la qualité des glaces et sorbets Terre adélice.

Les volumes du salon vous surprendront, le murmure des rivières, à la confluence de l’Eyrieux et de l’Auzène vous accompagneront pour prendre un cornet, emporter un bac de glaces ou profiter de la nouvelle terrasse, pour un bon moment entre amis ou en famille.

Les amateurs les plus habitués, retrouveront le même menu que dans nos glaciers de Lyon et Grenoble. Il vous sera proposé en complément, un espace boutique/vente vous permettant d'acheter toute la gamme de glaces et sorbets Terre adélice, en différents conditionnements ainsi que des produits locaux et bio.

Elaborés de façon artisanale et exigeante les glaces et sorbets Terre adélice réveillent dans votre palais la magie de la nature.

Fruits frais, lait entier régional ou encore chocolat A.Morin, pour vous, Terre adélice sélectionne les meilleurs produits.

Les fruits représentent pour la plupart 60 à 70% de la composition de ses sorbets et de ses glaces. Incorporés crus lors de la fabrication, le sorbet ou la glace restitue pleinement le goût originel du fruit.

En cohérence avec Terre adélice maison mère et les deux précédents salon glaciers, l’espace salon glacier Le Moulinon porte une attention toute particulière à sa propre responsabilité sociétale.

Au quotidien, les équipes veillent à la mise en musique des bonnes pratiques durables et environnementales. Les glaces et sorbets proposés sont certifiés issus de l’agriculture biologique à 100% (Certipaq FR-BIO-09), tout comme l’intégralité de l’offre “hors-glace” proposé au public (boissons, gâteaux, fruits, chantilly, nappages, coulis, garnitures et confitures) …

L’approvisionnement est exclusivement local et équitable, toujours issu de petites structures à taille humaine (miel, crème de marron, farines pour nos pâtes à crêpes ou à gaufres), assurant au producteur le prix juste. Ces “circuits courts” minimisent au passage notre empreinte carbone liée au transport, tout en misant sur l'authenticité et la qualité de nos partenaires régionaux.

Nous sommes agréés "Étapes savoureuses d'Ardèche".
