Once upon a time…

Michel Cluizel

… La Manufacture Michel Cluizel and its amazing chocolates that have created addicts around the world, starting with us, since more than 60 years. From inside-track Parisians to New York hipsters, as well as Bucarest trendies, no foodie can resist.

It should be said that with its precious know-how, the family-run business, originally from Normandy, is to cocoa what Chanel is to fashion: the ultimate reference of made in France chic and good taste.

Proof? Here is a rare chocolatier artisans who makes his own chocolate from A to Z—concretely « bean to bar ».

Manufactured with the same care as the most delicate laces or sophisticated pleats, Cluizel chocolates come from the very best cocoa plantations in the world (Mexico, Santo-Domingo, Madagascar…), roasted in Damville inside the historical chocolaterie, then transformed by using top secret home recipes (exceptionally, we give you one).

Some have become cult and are passed down from generation to generation (try their old fashioned praline, a killer), while others are created on a regular basis in order to be in synch with the whims of the moment.

In total, more than 1 400 tons of chocolate are dispatched each year in the hottest spots around the planet between Paris, Strasbourg, New York, Bucarest and more recently, Brooklyn. A real success-story à la française. Follow the guide...
