Who has never dreamed of baking with a chef? Head to the workshop, roll up your sleeves and dip your hands in the flour with Lionel, the pastry chef. Then, back to school to discover the secrets of black gold with Cyril the master chocolatier. As a bonus, tastings each more delicious than the next; a delicious and unforgettable day!
A temple of delicacies
The Biscuit Box… but what is hidden behind this somewhat magical name? Let's go in and see. The shop, it is true, is superb, warm and spacious, with cozy nooks to meet up with friends around a treat.
While our eyes are attracted by the range of colors and delicacies prettily arranged in the boxes, our nose is attracted by the scent of hot chocolate, biscuits with Provençal notes just out of the oven... Familiar and comforting smells, memories of childhood
Lionel and Cyril, pastry chef and master chocolatier, warmly invite us to continue immersion in the fabulous world of their chocolate factory.
And hop, all in toque!
Before getting down to business, head to the locker room! Crazy laughter guaranteed with the disposable apron and the charlotte on the head… it doesn't suit everyone!! This is the best time to immortalize this experience in photos!
Wash your hands then it’s time to enter the chefs’ den! Everything is clean, in its place, what a privilege to approach and be able to use this professional equipment!
A dose of sugar and laughter
In the program ? Cookies !
The ingredients weighed then brought together, the chef delivers his secret: a successful cookie is shaped by hand.
Mix, knead, turn and form balls of sticky, elastic and ready-to-brown dough!
I had to hold myself back on multiple occasions not to put my fingers in my mouth. What a temptation!
It's time to abandon our creations which go to the oven while the call of chocolate is heard...
Gourmet workshops
Several courses are offered all year round depending on the season, there are courses for children from 3€ and courses for adults from 20€. Example of workshops: making chocolate truffles, chefs’ cake, gingerbread house, filled shortbread, Christmas logs, etc.
A cocoa story
Cyril, a passionate chocolate maker, takes us on a real journey through time and around the world. The cocoa pod and its cocoa beans have no secrets for him and the anecdotes burst out for our greatest change of scenery!
He is the one in charge of developing new recipes around chocolate; and by the way, the new “candy” collection is tempting! Ganaches, pralines, peanut butter... The tasting promises to be intense...
The cocooning decor encourages relaxation and well-being. The only risk of frequenting this place is that of becoming addicted! Super quality products… a real delight, both the biscuits and the chocolates… gourmet and passionate team.
Canape tasting
Now is the time to share a friendly moment between chefs and pastry apprentices, well settled on a soft sofa, around a Viennese chocolate, a tea or a birch juice... For all tastes, the list of sweets is long and difficult to choose!
The congratulations are going well and the pleasure of having shared this experience is palpable.
Everyone will leave with their cookies and chocolates to consume without moderation or almost…
Are you greedy?
