It was cheaper to just buy the chocolate biscuits back home. But I wanted something memorable. The chocolate biscuits were delicious. There were other flavors as well. B got some chocolate cookies to bring back. It had lots of chocolate chips in the cookies. Except it crumbled easily. Other than that they were good. Good French quality. It is located in the touristy area. Highly recommend coming here. They also provide samples before purchase.

Such a beautiful little store. It reminded me of a quintessential European candy shop. They don't…read morejust sell candies but cookies too. Looking at all the colors and shapes is just a feast for your eyes. They offered delicious samples of their biscuits. I was really impressed that they even offered vegan biscuits, which we bought. Our kid loved the biscuits and asked for more. I wish we had a local biscuit/candy shop near our house. If that was the case, I think I would be severely overweight. lol

The most retro sweet shop in Paris!…read more Le Bonbon au Palais sells the traditional sweets from every region in France, many of which I used to eat when I was a kid. George, the owner, knows his stuff by heart and if you ask he will patiently explain the difference between the 4 different types of salted caramels he stocks or the detailed history of each sweet. Of course, it's slightly more expensive than what you'll get from the supermarket but the sweets at Le Bonbon au Palais are so much better you really can't compare them to Haribo's industrial crap! Not to mention you'll also be buying a little piece of French history and nostalgia along with the sugar...

One o' the kiddos ended up with a delicious candy that we couldn't identify. We go back to the display and it's fig. Fig candy! It was awesome. Won't find that back home. The place is stacked to the rafters with over the top cutetasticness. Alan was generous with the samples and the candy was great. Smiles all around.

Careful when you go here. Madame Acabo says she is a lover of chocolate... I would say a closer…read moredescription would be a drug dealer or chocolate pusher... I came in wanting just a piece of fine bernachon chocolate... and I mysteriously walked out with 7. The thing is, Denise Acabo is not shady about pushing chocolate on you; she is not a corrupt saleswoman. What makes it so easy to spend money is the joy radiating from her as she describes every piece of chocolate, and as you listen to her describe the chocolate too fast to understand with your high school french... you realize that you, too, want that same joy... and maybe- just maybe- if you eat as much chocolate as her, you will get to experience it too.

Madame Acabo is such a sweetheart. To this day my son recalls her calling him chouchou and how she…read moreexcitedly showed him all the chocolates he could ever dream off. I was mesmerized by the table full of Bernachon chocolate bars and did not noticed how my child had practically filled the platter Madame was holding for him with Bernachon chocolate bon bons. Oh mon dieu! Imagine that - my child speaks very limited French and Madame speaks limited English yet they sure shared the language of chocolates! Do not forget to grab a few of those Bernachon bars - your family/friends would be very lucky to receive those from you. However, if they don't want it, let me know and I'll take them off your hands. :) Try the Kalouga, Mendiant, Mocha...oh heck try them all!! They also carry fabulous Caramel Buerre Sale! Service is great and the place is jam packed with treasures. Worth the visit!!

After about a minute, I went and asked her for him. She took a big sip of water and pointed to her mouth annoyed that I too had asked a question. At that point, we went ahead and paid for the pieces my kids had in the bag and just left. Maybe she was just having a bad day but her behavior was unnecessary.

It's surprisingly inexpensive (the chocolate is VERY high quality) and, even if it weren't, you still have to go just to meet Clemence. Picture Willy Wonka, but French.

As a tourist who visited the store to see if they had any of the Bubs + skull Swedish candies, I…read morewas lured in when I saw them. I'd asked them how much it'd cost per pound and I could've sworn 99.9% that it was 3.49€ euro per kg which is such a great deal as it was 4.99€ at the pirate's candies... thank goodness I didn't load up on a lot because when I went to pay and it was €23.... I was shocked but took the hit as I didn't speak french. I got the receipt and it said 34,90€ per kg. I'm not sure if this was misleading or it was a miss on my part but be careful if you visit! There is no signage for pricing. Also, the candies are extremely stale and harden because the containers are exposed. I don't know why stores do this... but like put lids on them please because they were not great.
