L’Atelier des Lacs

A small family business, anchored
in the territory round the springs of Lake Annecy,
in Faverges-Seythenex.

L’Atelier des Lacs is a young company, created in 2016 by Geoffroy Mollier in Faverges-Seythenex, territory of the springs of Lake Annecy, nearby Mont-Blanc. In this exceptional alpine setting, Geoffroy Mollier has developed his first range of innovative confectionery, marketed under the trade names Origin’Alpes et Pastille des Alpes.

An innovative artisanal pastille with authentic flavours.

Convinced that it was possible to make « good confections » 100 % natural, free from artificial colourings, sugar free and with no added sugar, from local fruits or plants, Geoffroy installed a laboratory to conduct his first trials. He has forged close relationships with producers and pickers who supply him with the plants from the Alps used as ingredients.

PRODUCT INNOVATION ?

All confections are prepared without cooking, to preserve all nutritional and organoleptic values of flowers and plants, chosen to delight and surprise our palates.
Thanks to these inventions, L’ Atelier des Lacs had access to a support scheme dedicated to innovating companies. In the Auvergne Rhône Alpes Region , the Inovizi label he was granted from Initiative Grand Annecy assists project owners.
