Chocolate lovers, get ready—Easter is just around the corner, and Parisian chocolatiers are revealing their latest creations for the occasion. This year, Maison Chapon introduces the Kingdom of Chaponie starting March 5, 2026. It's a magical land filled with adorable little characters that will delight kids and families alike! Meet four irresistibly cute animal friends: Paco the panda, Bianca the parrot, Lili the tiger, and Sam the hippopotamus—each more tempting than the last!
Following its exotic collection in 2023, Chocolaterie Chapon aimed to evoke childhood wonder with a playful theme celebrating animals. They’ve crafted four new creations designed to appeal to all tastes, featuring their fun geometric molds.
Paco, our favorite, made entirely of white chocolate and splashed with violet, is said to have gotten his start from a fall into a blackberry bush. He’s the sweetest of the bunch. Bianca is crafted from Ecuadorian milk chocolate, just like Sam, while Lili is made from dark chocolates from Ecuador and Venezuela.
All these delightful creations are decorated with chocolates from Madagascar and priced at 29 euros, with an approximate size of 11cm. Given their size, these adorable animals are likely to disappear quickly into the mouths of little sweet tooths and could quickly add up if the whole family wants to savor their favorite Easter hero from Chaponie!
To round out the Héros de la Chaponie collection, enjoy lollipops featuring their likeness for €4, as well as candies filled with eggs and chocolates for €7. You can also find charming kitten molds priced at €29, along with small eggs decorated to match the fur colors of the animals—something for every taste.
A more classic collection awaits, featuring Easter eggs and chickens crafted from smooth chocolate or coated with crunchy pieces of Sicilian pistachios or intensely crisp hazelnuts. Prices range from €29 to €59, depending on size and weight.
If you're visiting the Chapon shop, be sure to stop by and sample their variety of chocolate mousses available at the mousse bar. La Maison Chapon is also renowned for its chocolate bars, crafted from rare cacao beans carefully sourced from select producers—these treasures are also available in stores across the city.
A perfect collection for parents and older kids alike, who are on the lookout for unique and creative molds!
