The best chocolatiers Métropole lilloise

Settled for more than twenty years in Old Lille, Dominique Benoît puts all his know-how to the making of the "best chocolate" thanks to the rigorous selection of the best raw materials: chocolate from the grand cru cocoa plantations of Venezuela, Madagascar and Ecuador, almonds from Provence or hazelnuts from Piedmont. You will also find its sweets at the Place du Théâtre and at the Benoît Chocolatier workshop, a place where young and old can learn all the manufacturing secrets.

In the pretty store of the Esquermoise street, you will find all that makes the success of the house Beussent since 1985. The success of the house comes from the fact that it is one of the only artisanal chocolate factories in France to make its chocolate directly from the cocoa bean. Owning plantations in Ecuador, the Beussent-Lachelle chocolate factory can control the entire manufacturing process, from the selection of the bean to the delivery to the store!

You know the small bear bear made in Villeneuve d'Ascq by Chocolate chocolate Chocolate. But the factory, specialising in chocolate bites and sweets, also produces three thousand tons of praline and thousands of greedy boxes every year. At the Christmas holidays, the ephemeral shop opens its doors from the end of November to 20 December to sell the production surplus at a very good price! Let lovers of chocolate take the word. The company plans to open a store, open all year, starting in 2016.

World champion chocolatier and pastry chef in 2013, Quentin Bailly is an epicurean who asserts his creativity, boldness and sweetness through gourmet preparations in keeping with his Nordic origins. From his mixtures of various candies and pralines as carefully presented as precious jewels, to his macaroons with original flavors, his creations for special occasions, his topped sorbets and ice creams, or his candied fruits and marshmallows, everything is irresistible.
