Obviously the French know how to do chocolate, as evidenced by this confectionery that puts many more well known chocolate companies to shame. Rich, savory pieces like bittersweet ganache and chocolate with orange mousse are typical of the exceptional sweets in this elegant candy retailer. A cafe in the back sells chocolate cakes and cookies along with tea and coffee for those who do not get their fill up front. Those with less of a sweet tooth may want to try the raspberry, peach or marmalade jams instead.
