Flavored Fleur de Sel

Give the gift of DIY flavored sea salt to your favorite cook. Pick one flavor or put together a sample pack of several kinds. Sprinkle on roasted meats or vegetables, use in marinades or add pinches to soups and stews. We love the vanilla salt as a crunchy topping for chocolate chip cookies, too.
