L artisan du chocolat which is located on sloane street is easily reachable form the sloane street under ground station and boy is it worth it. The selection of delights on offer are unrivalled and addictive. One of the shops best sellers and my favorites too, are liquid salted caramels, ( I know they sound odd) which have a dark chocolate shell which is filled with a lovely liquid caramel, that has a hint of sea salt, they are really good. There chocolate bars such as the fusion bars are a must buy. The artisan min taster box is good value and gives you a little taste of different styles. Pricey but adorable what lovely gifts this place sells.L artisan du chocolat which is located on sloane street is easily reachable form the sloane street under ground station and boy is it worth it.

I wandered in here as part of my personal chocolate tour around london after a trip to Belgium enjoying all their delicious delights. I left here feeling fairly underwhelmed. There are definitely better places around London for chocolate - pop into Nehaus. That, of course, is Belgian. Paul A Young in Camden Market is more ambitous and very British. I cannot quite put my finger on what this place lacks. The chocolate is okay but when you go to a chocolatier, you want the whole experience. I did not get that here.I wandered in here as part of my personal chocolate tour around london after a trip to Belgium enjoying all their delicious delights. I left here feeling fairly underwhelmed.

oh this place is so sweet, but it's the aroma of perfectly baked loaves that makes my stomach rumble most.

Everything is baked freshly, daily and with panache to give variety of some really extraudinary and satisfying breads: their milk bread (slow-made, so i'm informed) is ideal for picnic sandwiches or just under toasting and spreading with lashings of quality thick marmalade. YUM!

Ingredients are freshely sourced, and flour stone-ground: And this in the world of bread making is supremely important! As a resulf loaves take on a smooth texture and lightness that tempts any taste buds. I remember the light golden crust of the rye and raison loaf I bought, but do not remember finishing it quite so quickly!

My experience is always happy one where fine flour means loaves are for tearing and eating fresh; and if you're feeling friendly sharing with others! And what could be better than sliced bread!oh this place is so sweet, but it's the aroma of perfectly baked loaves that makes my stomach rumble most.
