A gourmet break in Versailles

All the kings and queens of France had a sweet tooth. Louis XIII was particularly fond of jams, especially at the end of a meal. As for Louis XIV, he had a keen taste for marrons glacés and patisseries. Louis XV quickly revealed his fondness for hot chocolate and never tired of extolling its reviving, stimulating and aphrodisiac effects. Lastly, Marie-Antoinette quickly chose the macaron as her culinary mascot, for which she had an immoderate liking.
In the heart of Versailles, just a stone’s throw from the Château, Art et Chocolat celebrates the union of artisanal expertise and artistic creativity.
Just 100 meters from the Palace, in the Cour des Senteurs, La Boutique Royale showcases all the craftsmanship of Versailles in the worlds of fragrances, Toile de Jouy, and fine foods.
