As a flavour and dessert, it has captivated our taste buds and senses for centuries. From candy bars to gourmet creations or even a simmering cup of hot cocoa, the forms are many but the effect is universal — absolute delight! Paul Bakery and Restaurant has perfected the art of tempering chocolate and has prepared a variety of desserts. The bistro invites you to sample these sinful treats. An array of cakes, pies, mousses, tarts and truffles are on offer. The experienced kitchen brigade combines the deep, dark and calming flavour of cocoa with the effervescent fruitiness of summer berries, apricots and other fruits. This variety is available only for a limited period, so we suggest you make the most of it. After all, there’s no such thing as excess when it comes to chocolate. With the growing spirit of festivity in the air, these delights make for great gifts. Breaking bread Aside from its chocolate fiesta, Paul Bakery and Restaurant is known for its extensive variety of breads. Pain de mie loaves, available in 250g or 500g packages, are an ideal accompaniment to your canapés and buffet spread. The walnut bread is the ideal partner to any cheese selection. They also offer rye bread, which is a rustic loaf boasting a genuine flavour, that goes best with seafood. The chestnut and orange bread is a seasonal favourite as is the one made with a mix of nuts and apricots. Topping this range is the six cereals and fig loaf.
