This is from a brochure from a renowned chocolate makers to its potential customers (who are pastry chefs, chocolatiers, restaurant chefs, etc.)
Dans ce livret dédié aux fêtes de fin d’année, (chocolate brand) a pensé à vous, artisans et restaurateurs, pour vous proposer des recettes originales et pour que les fêtes qui arrivent vous laissent un souvenir indélébile.
I'm not sure how to say this in a snappy manner that will be specific enough yet easily understood by english speakers, and I'm not sure "artisans" will be appropriate in English.
Thanks.

You can say "artisan chocolatier" also but then it's getting a bit long-winded and imo the word "chocolatier" on its own implies hand-made.

confectioners and restaurant owners
By artisans, the text suggests pastry cooks since it deals with chocolate making. The book provides advice on how to make chocolate based recipes...

craftsmen is odd though...you might want to say 'food artists and restaurant' .. bit more marketing

Discussion
In the meantime, "Artisan" is a word that is spreading its usage around culinary and food industry in UK in my experience. I don't think that is a problem unless this is something specific that a more accurate word could be found for.
