Le Marais, Paris

"In its third generation, Pralus is famous for a brioche studded with pink sugared almonds, plus house-made chocolate that’s equally delightful."
Pralus may be in its third generation of crafters, however, to this day, this chocolaterie still follows Grandad’s recipe. After all, the man is a maître chocolatier responsible for creating the Praluline® — back in 1955. Still sold in the shop today, it’s a brioche with pink sugared almonds and hazelnuts inside, all caramelized. It’s sweet, buttery and oh-so-good. In later years, Pralus branched out into sourcing and making its chocolate, from bean to bar, now sold here.
