Located in the center of Brest, near the Halles Saint-Louis, the C. Chocolat boutique is first and foremost a family adventure, where each member has contributed his or her own know-how and experience gathered around the world. It offers a collection of delicately flavored chocolates (the "Ceylon" was praised by Gault & Millau!). Grand cru chocolate squares, macaroons, entremets or bars with exotic names: the very best in craftsmanship. The Brest-based company now has six stores: a second in Brest on rue Jean Jaurès, followed by Guipavas, Landerneau and Quimper.

Octopus is an exclusively plant-based patisserie, a first in Brest, and even in Brittany! The idea behind this project was Galaad's desire to rethink traditional pastry recipes to create cakes that could be enjoyed by everyone, including vegetarians, vegans and allergy sufferers.

Lemon and chocolate tarts rub shoulders with refined fruit creations, evolving with the seasons, as well as pumpkin brioche, buckwheat muffin and hazelnut croquant, for a gourmet moment.
