The Ladies of the Consoeurie have chosen to give back  in the spotlight the recipe  Canestia, formerly “Nivelles candy”. This ancient pastry was offered to distinguished people and   was made by men of proven honesty and ability.

​

Variations of this recipe will be offered as our Consoeurie evolves with the help of involved skilled bakers.

​

Our new sisters will help us in this process, not only offering variations of the recipe, but also continuing to find traces of the history of this biscuit in our aclote city.

​

The tasting of Canestias goes well with that of Gertrude beer, created by Bruno Vandendriessche, the Ladies will also do so. the promotion of this beverage.
