I've been visiting St Malo for years, but it was only on a trip last September that I stumbled…read moreacross this jewel. Visiting with my boyfriend, we arrived in the morning after an overnight ferry journey, and after dumping our bags in the car, wandered into town in search of breakfast. After a little wandering, we found larnicol. I'm a great lover of cakes and chocolate, and the displays in this shop were too tempting to resist. The open front welcomed us in and we spent a good while just staring at the various goodies, finally settling on a Kougniettes each - pistachio for me and apple for the boy. We sat and ate these on the city walls and both agreed that they were absolutely delicious and worth a return visit. Which we made, just before catching our ferry home a few days later. This time we sampled some of the lovely chocolate goodies - from little squares of delicious chocolate, to chocolate coated nuts and fruits, all of them gorgeous - and a box of macarons. Now I'm a bit of a snob when it comes to macarons, and have long said that nowhere can compete with Ladurée...but Larnicol comes very close. All that's left to add is - I can't wait to be able to visit again! Roll on next summer...
