Craving a salty snack during your French class? We’ll soon be stocking just the thing in La Petite Boutique – Brets Potato Chips. For now though, just ask your prof* and they’ll be happy to grab you a bag.

Based in Central Brittany and 100% family-owned since 1995, Brets partners with 285 local potato farmers in Brittany and the Auvergne to create a delicious range of premium French chips.

We have *quatre saveurs appétissants:

• Originale – classic potato chips seasoned with the renowned Guerande salt from France.

• Camembert – made with Camembert from Normandy in western France for a rich, creamy taste.

• Jura – made with 100% PDO Comté from the French Jura. 

• Cèpes – crinkle-cut chips with a porcini mushroom flavour.

And, good news – you’ll get to try before you buy in your first lesson back for Term 4. *Bon appétit!
