Maison Georges Larnicol

Chocolate takes on unexpected forms at Maison Georges Larnicol, a chocolatier on rue de Rivoli, specialised in chocolate sculptures (from €29). You’ll find everything from red stiletto shoes and giant ladybirds, to pianos and even clocks fitted with real timepieces - all edible of course (except for the clocks' mechanisms!). If you can’t afford a sculpture, fill up on ‘rochers’ (almonds and orange peel rolled in dark chocolate), chocolate-coated marshmallows, biscuits and delicious macaroons.
