Give chocolate for Father's Day
In June, we celebrate the return of summer... and our beloved dads! On the third Sunday of the month, you have the opportunity to spoil them and tell them how much you love them. At La Mère de Famille, the oldest chocolate shop in Paris, we love family celebrations and offer a wide range of creations in milk chocolate, dark chocolate, ivory, praline, and other nuggets that will melt these gentlemen. Our chocolatiers put all their know-how into each of our recipes, developed in our Tours factory by combining innovation and artisanal tradition, to offer you refined, elegant... and terribly delicious gifts!
Why give chocolate for Father's Day?
To this question, we would like to say: why not? Our dear dads are, like everyone else, lovers of smooth, crunchy, or intense chocolate treats, depending on their mood of the day. Rather than a bottle of alcohol, a perfume, or any other gift traditionally considered "masculine" and slipped onto their list of ideas, dedicating this delicate gesture to them shows that you took the time to look for a gift that is off the beaten path.
A tradition full of indulgence and meaning
Giving chocolate gifts for Father's Day is, in our humble opinion, much more than a simple indulgent gesture: it is a tradition imbued with sweetness and symbolism. Chocolate, with its richness of flavors and its ability to awaken emotions, embodies the affection and gratitude that one wishes to express to their father. Whether it is intense dark, smooth milk, or embellished with crunchy dried fruits, it adapts to all tastes! With chocolate, you also offer a moment of pleasure and conviviality, a tasty break that celebrates the filial bond.
Chocolate, a gift that (always!) pleases
Chocolate is a timeless gift with which you are sure to hit the mark, because it combines simplicity and refinement. An essential for both small and large occasions, this indulgent gift adapts to all tastes and comes in countless forms, from bars to elegant assortments. Giving chocolate means choosing a gesture that is both indulgent and customizable. Its emotional power makes it much more than a simple sweet: it is a sign of affection that will speak to all dads, without a false note.
Discover our collection of chocolates for Father's Day
À la Mère de Famille does not merely offer a wide choice of creations, for all occasions and prices. The Maison also makes it a priority to select top-quality ingredients from plantations chosen for their values and their level of excellence. We personally select the cocoa beans, which are then assembled by our chocolatiers to obtain cocoa butter, the basis of our unique house coating, used in all our recipes. Here is a selection of our most emblematic ones!
Chocolate bars
By assembling the different cocoa terroirs from Madagascar, Haiti, or Peru, our teams have created chocolate bars with exquisite flavors. Your father will fall for the crunch of our hazelnut and almond mendiant bar, the melt-in-the-mouth quality of the praline one, or even the unique flavors of our Grands Crus Collection, where the full intensity of dark chocolate is expressed. Our different varieties of bars also come in barrette format.
Praliné chocolates and ganaches
À la Mère de Famille praliné is a celebrity in its own right. Made from our house coating, French hazelnuts, and roasted, caramelized, then cold-ground almonds according to an ancestral technique, it is simply to die for. The Maison offers it in praline rocks to snack on in a charming box, in bars, in chocolate candies to pick from according to your daily indulgent cravings, accompanied by dark chocolate, milk chocolate, or even white chocolate.
Our delicious assortments also make plenty of room for our ganache, made from fresh Normandy cream and dark or milk chocolate. Some ganache-based treats are flavored with raspberry, coconut, citrus, and many other flavors to discover, we are curious to know your opinions on your favorites!
Our adorable marshmallow squirrels
Father's Day is also an opportunity to pay tribute to your father's childhood. For this, choose our marshmallow squirrels, coated in a generous shell of dark or milk chocolate. As tasty as it is crunchy, our Madagascar vanilla marshmallow squirrel is ultra-light: we are eagerly awaiting your opinion on its fluffiness!
Yum, show me those marshmallow squirrels
