In
1800 Sulpice Debauve, a pharmacist/apothecarist to King Louis
XVI, opened his first chocolate shop on the left bank of Paris.
Debauve's chocolate creations and innovations were immediately
praised by the most influential figures in France.
Debauve & Gallais was appointed the
official chocolatier of Louis XVIII, Charles X and Louis Philippe.
They also had a following within the Russian court, the tsars
traditionally favoring the 99% dark chocolates as an accompaniment
to their strongest vodkas.
In honor of King Louis XVI, king
of France
and husband to queen Marie Antoinette, here is the
most decadent of our Museum collection. The Louis XVI
contains the Royal 70 assorted bonbons, Pistoles de Marie
Antoinette collection, Les Annes Folles (contains all of the fruit
and ginger aiguelletes), assortment of our bouchees, Carres,
and Mini-Tablettes.
