L’Atelier du Chocolat’s speciality is the “bouquet de chocolat,” composed of thin, curled sheets of dark, milk or white chocolate combined with dried fruit, hazelnuts, pistachios or almonds.

The Bayonne-based company has been around since 1951, when Joseph and Mageleine Andrieu opened their first pâtisserie-chocolaterie in Bayonne.

Their son Serge and his wife Marie-Pierre took over the business in 1965.

Transformed into L’Atelier du Chocolat in 1995, the family-run business today has 40 chocolate shops throughout France.
