Chocolate Lovers

So in an earlier post, I talked about the world's famous chocolate shop in Troyes, France. Yes, the chocolate was incredible...but I may have left out a fun little detail.

Not only was the chocolate champion of the world, but the guys selling the chocolate were equally as yummy! I was incredibly very flattered to have the manager of the store act like such a gentleman to me and offer me extra chocolate on top of what we bought, and as a gift! And this chocolate isn't cheap friends.

The first time we went into the shop for dessert after lunch, we got a few things to take with us to the cathedral to eat while listening to Michael play the organ. I decided to get the pastry that won them the title of world champion, it was SO good!!

As we were paying for our dessert, I said out load how adorable the truffles in the form of cigars were as they were sitting in a basket close to the cash register. Maxence, the store manager, saw that I liked them and took two and put them into our bag, free of charge! How sweet is that, right? Especially since they were about 10 euro each (about 13 U.S. dollars) It gets better...

So, because the chocolate was so good (and the guys so cute) we decided to go back once more before leaving Troyes to buy chocolate for the next few days back home! We bought a bunch of so many different flavors, enough to last us for weeks. Before we left, my aunt Patricia asked if the guys would take a picture with my friend Cyrielle and me and of course, they were happy to. Once again, as we were checking out, he gave me another gift! A big 6 inch chocolate sculpture of the mascot of an amusement park in France called Nigloland! By this time, my face must have been completely red! haha

 

 

 



Ok, so yes, I was very flattered but on a serious note, you guys should try to make it to this shop if you're ever in the area because it really is the best chocolate ever. It was fun finding a chocolate lover. ;)

Until next time!
