Alléno & Rivoire, the chocolate factory as a gastronomic experience

What if chocolate could be enjoyed as a main course? This is the bold challenge taken up by chefs Yannick Alléno (17 Michelin stars) and Aurélien Rivoire with their Parisian boutique Alléno & Rivoire. A chocolate shop like no other, where the chef’s gesture takes over. . And all under the watchful eyes of an audience invited to rediscover gourmet delights in a demanding way.

Chocolate, as if at the table of a great chef

Here, chocolate is prepared right at the counter. Ganaches, fruit confits, trèfles sauciers or bars with innovative textures are made to order. Each creation becomes a stage for haute gastronomie. It’s a dialogue between chocolatier and customer, just like in a Michelin-starred kitchen.

Ephemeral creations rub shoulders with the great classics. They are always designed to express the right taste, with an ultra-technical approach that respects the ingredients. White sugar, for example, is replaced by a natural extract of birch bark. This reduces the glycemic index to 7, compared with 70 for sucrose, without compromising on flavour.

Alléno & Rivoire, a sensory and educational immersion experience

More than a boutique, Alléno & Rivoire offers an immersive experience, where we understand how sauces, fermentations and extractions influence flavor. You’ll discover a living chocolate that hasn’t yet frozen all its aromas, and that reveals its full potential within the first 48 hours.

It’s this extreme freshness, combined with high-level expertise, that sets this house apart. An invitation to rediscover chocolate as a noble, complex and resolutely contemporary product.
