A chocolate coloured world ...!

Cocoa is a natural stimulant, endowed with therapeutic benefits such as iron, magnesium, potassium and anti-cholesterol. It was also considered the Gods' food back to the Aztec era and now, it has become a powerful cosmetic active ingredient. Let's not deprive ourselves from all its benefits and abuse cocoa beans whether it is on our skin or in our mouth. Guaranteed to boost your energy and restore your good humour!

Caught in the act...

Be careful, having the Cream de Ganache from the Maison du Chocolat at home irreparably exposes you to being caught in the act of eating it greedily with a spoon... or with your fingers for the addicts. Made from dark and milk chocolate, this cream symbolises the fragile and subtle balance between the strength of darkchocolate and the smooth delicacy of milkchocolate. It is obvious that everyone needs to eat some every day...!

Price: 12 € for 245g





Jadis & chocolat: a treatment for chocolate addicts

When you are in love money is no object... The possibilities to enjoy the benefits of cocoa are multiple. So let's go to India & Spa for a Jadis & Chocolat special ritual. On the menu: a two-hour-and-a-half magical chocolate treatment including a chocolate bath, a facial, a chocolate scrub, a chocolate-flavoured shea butter wrap and a hot chocolate massage. Once your senses have been given a taste for it, this pure moment of chocolate-flavoured delight ends with a tasting of traditional chocolate. Yummie...

Price: €170





Grassmat: Wake up in chocolate...

At Grassmat, everything invites you to relax, as long as you have managed to get out of your bed... It is obvious that a whole range dedicated to chocolate inevitably finds its place here. For the addicts, we advise the scrubbing foam and Chocolate Mousse mask, made of cocoa butter to be applied while burning a Douceur d'intérieur milk chocolate candle. All this plunges us into unsuspected delights! For a little while we could slide back underneath the covers!

Price: From €20 to €31 (the chocolate range)





Phytochoc: strong in cocoa!

Result: your face is radiant, hydrated and shows less signs of ageing, all that without eating one single calorie.

Price: €28 for a lifting serum
