I was absolutely blown away by the macarons here! I’ve never experienced something with so much flavor packed into such a light and delicate macaron. On my first visit, I tried the Cherry Chili and the Passionfruit Tarragon. On my second visit, I bought a box of 16 to take home and tried the Lavender Apricot. These are so delicious! And, they are made on site — the quality and attention to detail is exceptional!

I found this place on google looking for a relatively cheap box to find chocolates for my boss who was so kind to let me take a month off to go to Europe. It is a nice little store in the Montmartre area and they have a nice variety of chocolates.
The lady working there was very nice and helped me find a nice box of chocolates for the boss, a couple of lip shaped, raspberry flavoured chocolates for a friend, and showing us their selection of macarons.
I ordered three of them: lavendar apricot, salted caramel, and raspberry. I LOVED the lavendar apricot it was such an interesting flavour combination! The other two were scrumptious as well.
Since it is in Montmartre and not as popular as Pierre Hermé or Angelina you won’t have to deal with large lineups or product running out quickly. I would definitely recommend if you have a sweet tooth or are looking for an after meal dessert.

I came here looking for a special salt today. Unfortunately they didn’t have the salt to sell, but were very generous and letting me taste some of the amazing chocolates and Caramel sauce, which was actually made with that special salt. The chocolates, caramel, and macarons are the best I have ever tasted in my life! Everything made there is the highest quality, and made with the least number of ingredients, which is really important to me and says that it’s the healthiest of recipes. There were two people working there, one girl and one guy, and I’m terribly sorry that I did not get their names… they were incredibly kind and courteous and welcoming, and gave me the most excellent service! Besides that, they really know their products! I ended up buying some caramel sauce, chocolate, caramel candy, and macarons. Each product deserves a page just telling about how amazing it is… but suffice to say if you miss out on shopping at this wonderful store you are missing a treat beyond what I can explain! I’m excited to be taking these treats home to California to share with my kids. Thank you to you two wonderful people working at the store who were so nice and fun to talk to, and even wrapped my treats for my kids! You made my visit the best!

A total gem hidden in Montmartre. The sales associate was super friendly despite ma grammaire Francaise terrible. The chocolate bars make great souvenirs. The mid sixtieth percentile chocolate bar starts at 5 EU. The associate cheerfully wrapped ribbon (lots of colors to choose from) around each one after I indicated they were gifts for separate individuals. They also sell macarons (so many types from which to choose!) and fancier chocolates (shaped like le Tour Eiffel… around 7.5+ EU for 3 tiny tours; lip-​shaped ones for ‘kisses’ from Paris… etc.). Highly recommended!

Originaire de Carnac, ce pâtissier-​chocolatier n’est monté dans la capitale qu’il y a 3 ans.
Fort du succès de sa première boutique (un bar à chocolat pour être précis), il ouvre alors en mai 2011 une nouvelle boutique, en plein cœur de la butte Montmartre. Ici on né trouvera que les chocolats et macarons malheureusement. Malheureusement car ayant pu déguster une de ses galettes des rois version orientale (garnie de fruits sec), mais qui n’aime pas la galette j’ai été totalement conquise. Mais comme toutes ses créations sont conçues dans son laboratoire de la Baule, impossible d’importer des pâtisseries qui seraient trop fragiles pour supporter le transport Qu’à cela né tienne il nous reste tout de même chocolats et macarons. Une exclusivité de cette boutique de Montmartre: le bonbon en chocolat brillamment nommées la petite butte.
De la forme d’une pyramide allongée, ces bonbons se déclinent sous une douzaine de parfums fruités et couleurs acidulées. On trouve également dans cette boutique des plaquettes de chocolat grands crus et évidemment des macarons aux parfums originaux: fraise-​basilic, passion-​estragon Chocolats comme macarons sont très équilibrés, les saveurs se détachent bien, c’est très appréciable en bouche. Mais mon coup de cœur restera cette galette des rois qui laisse présager un merveilleux pâtissier. Un petit tour à la Baule s’impose
