Chocolates
Angelina Paris is an iconic Parisian tea house and pâtisserie founded in 1903, widely regarded as a symbol of French elegance and gastronomic tradition. Established on Rue de Rivoli by pastry chef Antoine Rumpelmayer, Angelina quickly became a favored meeting place for artists, writers and the Parisian elite, shaping its reputation as a cultural and culinary landmark.
The house is best known for its signature hot chocolate, Chocolat chaud l’Africain, celebrated for its exceptionally thick texture and intense cocoa depth, as well as for the Mont-Blanc dessert made with chestnut cream, whipped cream and meringue. Angelina’s identity is deeply rooted in the Belle Époque aesthetic, which remains a defining element of its flagship salons.
Over time, the brand has expanded beyond its historic location, with multiple addresses across Paris and an international retail presence through gourmet food stores. Despite this expansion, Angelina continues to emphasize craftsmanship, consistency and classic French pastry savoir-faire.
Today, it stands as a reference point for luxury confectionery and tea culture, blending heritage, indulgence and timeless Parisian style.
