Description
This exciting Paris chocolate tour combines history and French pastry in the tasteful district of Saint-Germain-des-Près. This yummy adventure is designed to appeal to the whole family, with children invited to solve a few riddles. Start at the Saint-Germain-des-Pres Church for your first tasting of chouquette, a French baked specialty. Then, visit a 200-year-old chocolate factory which specializes in premium chocolates. Then its time to taste a macaron, an almond based cookie created in Italy and brought to France with Catherine de Medicis's chef. Afterwards, you'll be invited to enjoy a crêpe! A must for every sweet tooth, right?
Since 1830, this next boutique has kept its delicate recipe of calissons, a crushed mixture of candied melons and almonds placed on a sheet of unleavened bread and covered with a thin layer of royal frosting. Then its time to taste the “kouign amann”, which means “butter cake” in Breton. This dessert is also known as Bretons’ crêpes. And to finish in beauty, a chocolate ice cream or hot chocolate (depending of the season)
