What to expect
Hôtel Lutetia
We begin our sweet adventure at the beautiful Square Boucicaut, just across the magnificent Hotel Lutetia.

Sharing is optional. *2-3 as opening hours vary.

Rue du Four
Oven street. Where's the oven? Walking through a cute winding street dating back to the 13th century, we will deep dive into the world of chocolate, understand the bean to bar process, the right working temperature and some of the most creative chocolate products we have in the market today. More chocolate treats here!
