Chocolaterie Ethiquable
About This Museum
Tucked away in the rolling countryside of Fleurance in southwestern France, Chocolaterie Ethiquable is far more than a simple sweet shop. This charming museum is dedicated to the story of fair trade and the journey of cocoa from bean to bar. You'll discover how their direct partnerships with small-scale farmer cooperatives make a real difference. It's a genuinely delicious and enlightening experience that connects your treat directly to its tropical origins.
Collection Highlights
The heart of the visit is seeing the antique conching machines and marble tables used for tempering chocolate. Interactive displays explain the fermentation and drying process, while you can sample single-origin bars that highlight unique flavors from places like Peru or the Dominican Republic.
Visitor Information
Be sure to check their website for tour times, as visits are often guided. And don't even think about leaving without trying a piece of their signature dark chocolate with fleur de sel from Guérande – it's a revelation.
Architecture & Building
Housed in a modern, functional building that reflects its ethical, no-frills ethos, its real charm comes from the rich, aromatic scent of roasting cocoa that fills the air.
