    • The passion … the mastery of a traditional know-how… but also a whole family brand in the service of quality for 60 years.

      The MICHEL HUVELIN chocolate factory is a Niortaise institution (79000 NIORT) which settled in La Rochelle in 2009 in order to allow new customers to discover its products.

      Master chocolate maker but also confectioner of angelica from the Marais Poitevin, we offer more than 60 different chocolate candies, "Great Origins" tablets, our homemade 49% hazelnut spread, a chocolate pastry corner, regional products high quality with our caramels with Echiré butter and fleur de sel from Ile De Ré and many other references in terms of delicacies and taste development.

      Our warm and dynamic team of professionals welcomes you and offers you tailor-made support according to your needs and expectations.

      Do not hesitate to come and stroll through our beautiful shop in the heart of the city, a stone's throw from the covered market, classified as a historic monument, where you can also enjoy our ephemeral terrace (from May 1 to September 30) accompanied by an artisanal ice cream, a regional and local organic drink or a slice of Charentaise pancake filled with candied angelica purée which is a very popular gourmet treat. (Recipe and manufacture HUVELIN).


      Our motto: QUALITY, SERVICE, EXCHANGE AND CONVIVIALITY

    An incredible shop, clean and decorated with taste and passion by the chocolate factory team. A festive atmosphere that changes according to the festival and the season which is pleasing to the eyes of young and old. The sellers are very respectful. They know their products and know how to advise us according to the budget we want. The display case presenting the different individual bites is very well presented. I haven't tasted everything yet but I highly recommend this chocolate shop for the pleasure of your taste buds, whether for yourself or for your loved ones.

    I discovered this chocolate factory thanks to a friend, what was my surprise when I went there... a chocolate factory with a different look from all the others. In a small space, they were able to present a large number of products, mainly chocolate but also other products. What convinced me the most was the artisanal side. A very welcoming person, who took the time, despite the rush, to explain to me the history of the Huvelin house and the partnerships. So I bought boxes of chocolates, and I went back several times. When I have doubts about a product, they are kind enough to offer me a taste before I decide. They always have a smile and are extremely friendly. I therefore recommend this chocolate shop.
