It was cheaper to just buy the chocolate biscuits back home. But I wanted something memorable. The chocolate biscuits were delicious. There were other flavors as well.

George, the owner, knows his stuff by heart and if you ask he will patiently explain the difference between the 4 different types of salted caramels he stocks or the detailed history of each sweet. Of course, it's slightly more expensive than what you'll get from the supermarket but the sweets at Le Bonbon au Palais are so much better you really can't compare them to Haribo's industrial crap! Not to mention you'll also be buying a little piece of French history and nostalgia along with the sugar...

Epicerie fine au début, elle devient au fil des ans une véritable Chocolaterie Confiserie, proposant un vaste choix de douceurs et de gourmandises. Vous y trouverez une large gamme de bonbons de chocolat, tels des ganaches, des pralinés ou bien des spécialités (nature ou parfumés selon les goûts). Pour les amateurs de confiserie le choix est grand : de vrais bonbons à l'ancienne (Négus de Nevers, Froufrous, Berlingots, Bonbons à la Violette, Framboises Fourrées, Coquelicots...), des Pâtes de Fruits, des Calissons, des Dragées, des Fondants, des Caramels et bien d'autres... Le tout pour le plus grand émerveillement et bonheur des générations d'enfants qui ont rêvé devant les bocaux de bonbons multicolores, emblème de Servant. Durant un siècle, Servant a su conserver les valeurs et le savoir-faire des Artisans Chocolatiers, le respect des traditions, ainsi que la recherche permanente de nouvelles saveurs chocolatées.

I came in wanting just a piece of fine bernachon chocolate... and I mysteriously walked out with 7. The thing is, Denise Acabo is not shady about pushing chocolate on you; she is not a corrupt saleswoman. What makes it so easy to spend money is the joy radiating from her as she describes every piece of chocolate, and as you listen to her describe the chocolate too fast to understand with your high school french... you realize that you, too, want that same joy... and maybe- just maybe- if you eat as much chocolate as her, you will get to experience it too.

I was mesmerized by the table full of Bernachon chocolate bars and did not noticed how my child had practically filled the platter Madame was holding for him with Bernachon chocolate bon bons. Oh mon dieu! Imagine that - my child speaks very limited French and Madame speaks limited English yet they sure shared the language of chocolates! Do not forget to grab a few of those Bernachon bars - your family/friends would be very lucky to receive those from you. However, if they don't want it, let me know and I'll take them off your hands. :) Try the Kalouga, Mendiant, Mocha...oh heck try them all!! They also carry fabulous Caramel Buerre Sale!
