PASSION CHOCOLAT

In a historic upper town in Brussels, Sablon, there are many authentic Belgian chocolate shops. Founded in 1998, Passion Chocolat still locates in Sablon and you can find various handmade chocolates loved by many local people.

Authentic Belgian chocolate

There are pralines, ganaches, chocolate truffles, chocolate bars, chocolate specialties, and other various sweets that you can enjoy choosing.

Chocolate bars are sorted by their origins and are something that you should try. You can compare the variety of tastes and compare since they don't have other plant ingredients. 

There are some chocolate gifts as well. "Feuilletines", very thin flavored chocolate bars would be great for having a cup of coffee or tea.

There are more than 80 varieties of pralines according to the traditional recipes. There are three signature chocolates that you cannot miss. "La Cabosse", a praline that looks like the fruit of the cocoa tree, "Peanut", a lightly salted peanut-shaped praline peanut, and the biscuit-flavored Praliné, almond biscuit praliné. All of them are very addictive and once you know Passion Chocolat, as many Brusselian locals, Passion Chocolat will be your best favorite chocolatier. 

You can also make your own original canned chocolates. The best fun part when you buy chocolates in Belgium is when you are choosing the various chocolates.

What makes Passion Chocolat unique is not only the taste of chocolate but also the sweet wrapping with love. The praline chocolates are popular among local people but actually, Passion Chocolat's chocolate boxes are very suitable for souvenirs.
