MICHEL HUVELIN - MAÎTRE CHOCOLATIER
Read moreThe Huvelin family business has been shining with its creations since 1963. A total of 59 types of chocolate bonbons, bouchées, tablettes, "carrés origines", pralines, ganaches and a hint of Pamplie salted butter, all prepared by hand. The establishment also works with the emblematic angelica, in its candied version, in jams, compotes and liqueurs obtained by maceration. What can I say? Oh yes, it's a Niort landmark: a visit is a must!
CHOCOLATS ET DÉLICES DU POITOU
Read moreAh, the Gâtinettes from Chocolats et délices du Poitou! A delicious blend of honeyed flaked almonds coated in chocolate. A delicacy to be savored at once, to be found in the stores of Poitou producers and in the incredible chocolate factory of Azay-sur-Thouet: a small artisanal store where chocolate and butter cakes flow freely and in all forms. The illusion is perfect for crottins and chocolate sausages. Gourmets beware.
