France is not considered a great chocolate country in the same way Switzerland and Belgium are, but there are still some good chocolatiers around. At 6:13 this evening, we passed the window of one of them on the Rue Hoche in Cannes. Here one can buy a Hello Kitty, the catch of the day, seashells, starfish, a whole lobster Thermidor, even a bottle of sun screen (with UV protection, of course)... all made of chocolate. Whether one likes dark chocolate, milk chocolate, white chocolate, or any kind of flavored variety, one is sure to find something to one’s liking here. However, there is not much in terms of French chocolate to be found in supermarkets; one is better off buying imported goods, particularly from the countries mentioned above.
