Came here and bought some souvenirs back home. I got a tin box of chocolate biscuits. The tin box…read morewas very well designed and was very high quality made. 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. B got some chocolate cookies to bring back. It had lots of chocolate chips in the cookies. Except it crumbled easily. Other than that they were good. Good French quality. It is located in the touristy area. Highly recommend coming here. They also provide samples before purchase.

Such a beautiful little store. It reminded me of a quintessential European candy shop. They don't…read morejust sell candies but cookies too. Looking at all the colors and shapes is just a feast for your eyes. They offered delicious samples of their biscuits. I was really impressed that they even offered vegan biscuits, which we bought. Our kid loved the biscuits and asked for more. I wish we had a local biscuit/candy shop near our house. If that was the case, I think I would be severely overweight. lol

Then they weigh your candy at checkout. I felt like I had taken a stroll down memory lane to my childhood which was priceless, however I spent about 8 euros for about 10-12 pieces of candy. Beware of cavities and pricey candy!

When we visit Paris we always stop at this amazing candy shop. They have delicious treats. I highly…read morerecommend this place! Je T'aime

The most retro sweet shop in Paris!…read more Le Bonbon au Palais sells the traditional sweets from every region in France, many of which I used to eat when I was a kid. 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...

One o' the kiddos ended up with a delicious candy that we couldn't identify. We go back to the display and it's fig. Fig candy! It was awesome. Won't find that back home. The place is stacked to the rafters with over the top cutetasticness. Alan was generous with the samples and the candy was great. Smiles all around.

The oldest chocolate store in Paris does not disappoint. Not only is it undeniably quaint inside,…read morebut the chocolate and sweet selection makes you wish we had anything like this in America. This isn't a gimmick- it's the best chocolate I've ever had. I wish I bought some more and might order more of this online because it's that good. (Also, both staff members were exceptionally helpful especially in guiding my son who was completely overwhelmed by the selection, which is what you would expect of a kid in a candy shop.)

I made a special point to go to come here after reading that it was the oldest chocolate shop in…read moreParis. We happened to go on Valentine's Day so, even though it was raining, there was a steady stream of people coming in to pick up last minute gifts. We purchased some dark chocolate bars, marzipan and hazelnut chocolate treats and they were all delicious. The shop itself was so cute and felt like stepping back in time. Really loved the whole vibe and will hopefully be back!

As a tourist who visited the store to see if they had any of the Bubs + skull Swedish candies, I…read morewas lured in when I saw them. I'd asked them how much it'd cost per pound and I could've sworn 99.9% that it was 3.49€ euro per kg which is such a great deal as it was 4.99€ at the pirate's candies... thank goodness I didn't load up on a lot because when I went to pay and it was €23.... I was shocked but took the hit as I didn't speak french. I got the receipt and it said 34,90€ per kg. I'm not sure if this was misleading or it was a miss on my part but be careful if you visit! There is no signage for pricing. Also, the candies are extremely stale and harden because the containers are exposed. I don't know why stores do this... but like put lids on them please because they were not great.

Absolutely amazing!!! We bought a few candies and started walking down the street. After trying…read morethem we immediately turned around to buy more!
