En 1920, un maître chocolatier s'inspira de ces personnages pour en faire une confiserie composée de noisettes grillées, nougatine et chocolat pailleté. Depuis la tradition s'est perpétuée et l'on peut toujours déguster ces Picantins dans cette pâtisserie salon de thé du centre-ville.

Particularly the dark chocolate dipped orange slices. I'm saved! One box of that for my wife and one box of the chocolate hazelnuts for me.

I had tried macaroons in France and in the US, but I had never been impressed. The macaroon from la Maison du Chocolat was so light and just melted in my mouth, "lighter than the air" as they say. I'm going back to get more! Highly recommended! ***************************** If you found something useful in my review, please hit "useful" so that I can improve my future reviews.

We went in here because my sister wanted to buy a box of chocolate for a friend. The store sells chocolates by the kilo, packaged candies such as caramels, meringues, biscuits, cookies and etc....Also you cannot miss the large variety of macarons they have on display. The ladies working in there are very friendly and have samples ready for their customers. We saw a sign for 7€ for 100 grams of chocolate, which seems to be a good deal. I bought the deal, but had the lady who was helping me choose the chocolates for me. Too many choices and they all looked good! The nice thing is the pieces are small, and that's good because the milk chocolate ones are a little sweeter than I like. She asked me if I wanted it boxed as in a gift for someone or in a regular bag. It was only a gift for myself, so I just had it bagged. The chocolates were good. The 100 grams were just enough to snack on for a few days. The milks were definitely sweater than the darks, so if you prefer then less sweet, get their dark chocolate. The two young ladies in there who were working were very friendly and very eager to help. Next time we're in Reims, I'd come back here and try their other confections like their macarons and other candies!

I was looking at the kiosk when the worker offered me a free chocolate sample, which was very delicious. She told me that all of the macarons are filled with a chocolate ganache, which I thought was very interesting. I got the Venezuela ("Dark Chocolate with a Woody Note" and Pistachio Macaron. The Venezuela was a dark chocolate which I loved, although I didn't really get the "woody notes" The pistachio flavor wasn't super strong and balanced well with the dark ganache. for upward of 3 euros each, these are definitely more of a treat than an every day snack, but I will be back next time I'm in Paris!
