A customer asked me if I had made any chestnut bonbons. I have not but I do think that it is an interesting idea. Has anybody made one or tasted one that they like? Any favorite brands of chestnut puree? Please help.

I used to make a chocolate chestnut cake for christmas but it was a hard sell in the shop; generally the older clientele liked chestnut better than their younger counterparts.   I also had a long time customer order a chestnut mousse cake for his wife's new year's eve birthday for years and I had better luck with the Clement Faugier brand (green and white can); it was just pure unsweetened chestnut puree.  The Vanini brand has sugar in it so just be aware the puree can be sweetened or unsweetened.
