Absolutely the best dark chocolate in Paris truly to die for! The richness and depth of flavor are unmatched, and every bite is a pure delight. A must visit for any chocolate lover in the city 😋

If you are a fan of chocolate, you gotta try this place! The chocolate is absolutely delicious! Melts instantly in your mouth. Flavor is excellent. I am already missing Paris...

Such amazing chocolate. It literally melted in my mouth. The salesperson was very patient and helpful. Yes, you pay a bit more for the chocolate, but it's worth it. Try getting some for a souvenir for a friend.

If you are in Paris and if you are chocolate fans, then go no more. Try their dark chocolate ganache, sea salt toffee, their fruit candy… can tell no more. I fell in love. The salesperson was kind and patient. I would only recommend to hire more than one to help with moving up the queue. …

Despite the prices, buying here is casual and friendly. I tried sticking to speaking in French but the sales people definitely know English. The chocolates are to die for, and the hidden gems are the very few pastries on sale, for a price, that are nearly perfect in every way. I was able to try a tarte au caramel with walnuts, and the most amazing chou à la crème with a hard sugar glaze. Really amazing stuff and would try even more on a return one day.

For a chocolatier, the ingredients are very disappointing. Using sunflower lecithin, really? The chocolate was good, but I was just expecting more.

As a dark chocolate fanatic, I decided to test J. Genin vs J-P Hevin around the corner! I tried several flavours of chocolates, the cafe’ most stand out - delicious! But two flavours lacked the ability to stand out. The chocolate itself was flavourful and as good as JPH.

Bugs in the candy!!! I was sooo disappointed because this was my favourite candy and chocolate shop. I had walked away after purchasing and noticed an insect on the bottom of one of my just purchased candies :(
