A French film about chocolatiers had us craving chocolates, and we aren't talking See's or Godiva. We wanted the authentic chocolates that are like a fine art. My boyfriend was determined the best would be from Paris. A quick internet search landed us at Chapon. A quick online order and within 5 days we had the most incredible chocolates delivered to our door. Surprisingly quickly considering they used USPS...
The boxes were chic and in unique shapes - one shaped like the Eiffel Tower and the other like a large "S," meant to evoke a musical score.
One bite of the little morsel and I was hooked. I tried a heart shaped one that had a praline like center. Delicate and sweet. Another one had even more of a crunch and a third had a creamy texture with hints of Madagascar. These are definitely the real deal.
If only they were closer! Although it's probably best they are located across the world as these tempting little bites are too good not to eat.
I will say that when chocolate is this good it is so incredibly satisfying. One bite takes you away for just a moment... It takes me to utter bliss! And I wouldn't even call myself a real chocolate lover. But anyone would appreciate these sort of delicacies. These would make for a wonderful gift! Especially with Valentine's Day right around the corner.
I'm a huge chocolate lover, I'm definitely going to order from this place. Just discovered your blog and love it!
