Nougat and salty caramel in Paris at La Boutique du Labo
Nougat, chocolate nougat, huge slabs of it cut in whatever amounts and sold by the weight, praliné butters—little glass jars of hazelnut butter or mixed nut butter, marrons glacés (chestnuts candied in sugar syrup and glazed), chocolate, candied almonds, guimauve (marshmallow), salty caramels and macarons, all of it can be found in this minuscule store. La Boutique du Labo also sells ice-cream in the warmer seasons, and offers an array of different sides such as coulis (fresh fruit syrup), nuts or hot chocolate sauce to add to the scoops of ice-cream. The shop also has an Italian ice-cream maker, the kind that makes swirly ice-cream cones, but unlike all of those found in touristy areas, this one only serves homemade ice-cream made with all natural ingredients.
