Fodor's Expert Review Maison Chaudun

Maverick chocolatier Michel Chaudun was a legend around Paris. Trained at the Maison du Chocolat, the master confectioner was the very first to strike out on his own, long before Paris became a chocolate mecca. He was also the first to introduce granules of cocoa bean into his chocolates to achieve a rich intensity. In 2015, Chaudun passed the baton to Gilles Marchal, who has more than upheld the standard. Specializing in chocolate sculpture, pastries, and other sinful delights, this enchanting boutique is any chocolate lover's dream.
