During his childhood, François Carles loved to go to his grandmother’s house, where he would listen to her tell many wonderful stories. His all-time favourite was the tale of Little Red Riding Hood. 

Later, as an inhabitant of Aveyron at heart, he used this fairy-tale to create his own version where Little Red Riding Hood brought her grandmother a gift basket full of wonderful Roquefort cheese, an excellent alternative to the legendary loaves of bread. As a result, the Roquefort “Little Red Riding Hood” (Chaperon Rouge in French) was born.
