Where to buy bread cakes chocolates ice cream Quebec

The small museum, which tells the story of chocolate and its production process, is designed in a very playful way. Before the eyes of the curious, the craftsmen shape the precious delicacies certified "pure chocolate", original and delicious, in solid or liquid form. Brownies are the best in Quebec, at least that's what customers say. The classic Érico chocolate cake enjoys the same prestige, not to mention hot chocolate, available in a dozen varieties, and homemade ice creams and sorbets in summer. A must have!

The large bay windows of this small but renowned shop are an eye-catcher. Once inside, you really wonder which delicacy to start with: macaroon, caramel (a must-try!), fudge, nougat, cupcake, chocolate-covered fresh fruit skewers, sorbet, gelato, whipped milk, smoothie... Seasonal festivities also bring their share of flavours, such as at Christmas, when we find gingerbread treats. Note that several products are adapted to the keto diet. Enjoy!

If the palate had a memory, it would be haunted by Paillard's butter croissant: a crispy cover and a very tender center, a good taste of butter, it's a marvel! But it shouldn't overshadow the pastry department, with its wide variety of macaroons and other millefeuilles made by a chef trained in the best schools. Breakfasts, salads, sandwiches and quiches are also delicious! This great bakery also offers chocolates, caramels and homemade jams, not forgetting its coffee.

Housed in a residence over 200 years old, this boutique will charm you with its chocolate fragrances. The quality raw materials come from Belgium, and the chocolate factory transforms them into excellent products that are distributed to local businesses or sold on site. The truffles are a must (we've tried every flavor), and the sorbets and homemade ice creams are also worth a detour. A must for all gourmets!

Housed in the former Saint-Jean presbytery, which was also home to La Boulange until 2021, La Midinette is the offspring of the Monna sisters (of Cassis Monna & Filles), who have preserved the character and historic vocation of the premises while adding a more eccentric touch. La Midinette takes up the torch on the bakery side, adding a refreshment bar in the dining room or on the terrace. La Midinette is also a wine shop, offering a fine selection of wines from private imports. A fine gourmet address for indulging on the island!

Pascal works in the authentic French artisanal bakery. Its delicious breads, all made by hand fresh of the day with top quality ingredients, are available in traditional loaves, baguettes, walnut bread and tutti quanti. There are also pastries (including pure butter croissants), pastries, sandwiches and pies (salty and sweet), a small selection of Quebec cheeses and deli meats. The ideal stop before hiking in Jacques-Cartier National Park, or as a reward on the way back

It was thought quite impossible to find a maple bacon doughnut that would surpass Brewnuts' in Cleveland, USA. Well, it's done, and the memory is memorable: the abuse of crispy bacon bits makes it the undisputed champion. We also brought back a few other tasty donuts for the road (a few vegan options on the menu): café praliné, caramel apple pie, marzipan... Finally, the place also serves milkshakes, smoothies, coffees, teas and hot chocolates.
