La Belgique Gourmande, a perfect place for chocolate addicts

If you ever come to Belgium, two things you have to try are the Belgian chocolate and Belgian waffles. In this post, I will write about Belgian chocolates, more specifically about a shop where you can buy any kind of chocolate you want. It’s about a La Belgique Gourmande shop.

Nice shop near Grand Place

In fact, the entire centre of Brussels is full of similar shops, but La Belgique Gourmande really stands out from others. The reason is because of the beautiful design of the store and because of the wide range of products. Actually, the first thing that caught my eye was a very nice shop window. The store has an old charm because it is one of the oldest shops in the street.

La Belgique Gourmande chocolate

Chocolate comes at multiple sizes, shapes, and prices. Also, you can buy chocolate with a gram, which makes it more affordable. Especially if you want to try different types of chocolate. Their price is about 5€ per 100 grams. The offer is based on traditional Belgian sweets. You will find traditionally made Speculoos, fine Gaufrettes, Brussels and Liège Waffles, Waffles with syrup or chocolate, almond cookies, fruit gingerbread, sugar candy, etc.

Gift boxes for every budget

If you are a tourist in Brussels you will certainly want to bring something home or give your loved ones a gift. Because of that, I recommend you to buy beautiful sweets painted boxes. Most of them are with the motifs of Brussels. Also, we found motifs with paintings by one of the most famous painters of the world, Magritte. I most liked boxes in the form of traditional Belgian houses, whose price is about 20 euros. The offer is also complemented by a wide selection of orangettes, florentines, mendiants, almond mixtures, candied fruit, cuberdons, caramels, babeluttes, etc.

In this store in the centre of the city, you will probably run into a crowd so don’t expect a silent, personal service. During your payment, you will probably see a beautiful old antique cash register giving this place a special atmosphere.

If you walk near the shop, try at least one chocolate. Find out more information about La Belgique Gourmande on:

I confirm, this is the best chocolat store ever ! Everything is delicious and at a very low price compared to the other stores. I especially like their cuberdons, macarons and filled truffles.
