Le Chocolat des Français – Christmas Tree Bauble with Milk and Dark Chocolate “Christmas Ski Trip”.
This festive metal Christmas tree bauble is filled with deliciously crispy rice balls coated in smooth milk chocolate and rich dark chocolate. The light, crunchy centre and melt-in-the-mouth chocolate coating create a delightful combination of textures and flavours. Resembling little snowballs, these chocolate treats are perfect for sharing with loved ones or enjoying during a cosy winter afternoon.
The chocolate-covered rice balls are crafted in Marseille, France, in collaboration with local master chocolatiers. Made from puffed rice, they are carefully coated in milk and dark chocolate. At every stage of production, particular attention is paid to traditional chocolate-making craftsmanship, ensuring a satisfyingly crisp texture and a harmonious chocolate flavour.
Adding a special charm to this festive treat is the “Christmas Ski Trip” illustration created by artist Sarah Matuszewski, inspired by winter adventures and the magic of Christmas. The colourful metal bauble features a playful alpine world filled with skiing equipment, cheerful characters wrapped up in warm winter clothing, Santa Claus, and a steaming cup of coffee inviting you to warm up after a day on the snowy slopes. Every detail of the illustration captures the cosy, joyful atmosphere of the festive season.
More than just a delicious chocolate treat, this charming bauble also serves as an original Christmas decoration. Once empty, the metal bauble can be hung on the Christmas tree or displayed as a festive ornament around the home. A small, playful gift from France that brings together fine chocolate craftsmanship, art, and the joy of Christmas.

Le Chocolat des Français – the chocolate that smiles
A story of friendship and creativity
Once upon a time, three friends – Matthieu, Paul-Henri, and Vincent – had a bold idea: to create a chocolate that would not only be delicious but also warm the soul. A chocolate that could surprise, make people smile, and bring a touch of joy to everyday life. That’s how Le Chocolat des Français was born – a chocolate where French craftsmanship, art, and childhood dreams come together.
When taste becomes art
Le Chocolat des Français combines two great passions – artistic expression and authentic chocolate. Every product is crafted in France using natural, often organic ingredients, free from palm oil and artificial additives. The chocolate bars, truffles, and chocolate-coated fruits are lovingly made in small regional workshops – in Avignon, Strasbourg, Marseille, and near Angers.
But what truly makes this chocolate unique is its artistic side. Each package is a tiny piece of art, created by one of over 750 artists. Illustrations, comics, street art, or press cartoons – every bar tells its own colorful, witty, and distinctly French story.
Quality trusted by top chefs
From the very beginning, Le Chocolat des Français has pursued excellence without compromise. This dedication has earned numerous distinctions, including Great Taste, European Chocolate Awards, and Prix Épicure. The brand collaborates with renowned French chefs such as Thierry Marx, Marc Veyrat, Pierre Augé, and others to craft unique, refined flavors that embody true gourmet artistry.
Chocolate with a mission
This is not just a story about sweets – it’s a story about values. 80% of the products are organic, 100% of the packaging is recyclable, and surplus chocolates are donated to Les Restos du Cœur, a charity supporting those in need. The packaging process is entrusted to workers with disabilities in social workshops, giving each creation meaning and heart.
A gift that delights every sense
Today, Le Chocolat des Français stands as a true ambassador of French spirit, found in select stores across the world – including in our own shops. It’s art, flavor, and emotion in one – the perfect gift for those who believe that beauty and goodness always go hand in hand.
