Happy Valentine’s Day! Paris is known for its delightful window displays, and the chocolate shops and patissieries are no exception. Here are a few of the windows I captured during my visit in December; due to the season many have a Christmas theme.
This shop, Puyricard, features artisanal chocolates from Provence. They’re on rue Cherche-Midi, and the shopkeeper was a delightful woman. I brought a box of these home for le Monsieur; highly recommend!
Josephine and I passed this window on our way to the d’Orsay RER station. Had to stop and drool for a few minutes.
Above, the Ladurée on rue Royale.
The two photos above are from Michel Cluizel. Those “sardines” are actually foil-wrapped chocolates.
Jacques Genin on rue Varenne has a very modernist, minimalist look. The chocolates are eclectic and exquisite!
The photo below is from 2015, and yes, that’s a chocolate stiletto…
Jean Paul Hevin. (We also saw several of his shops in Japan.)
Hope you’re having a sweet day!
