One sunny morning Marco the Swiss Alpine Marmot, hopped off a train in Nyon. He was there to visit this charming town nestled on the shores of Lake Leman. This city is only only famous for the Nyon Castle, but also for the world-class Chocolaterie Alexandre; a haven of deliciousness right in the heart of its old town.
Marco followed his nose (and trusty map) to find the boutique of Chocolaterie Alexandre! As he opened the door, he was greeted by a warm smile and a booming "Bonjour!" It was Alexandre, the master chocolatier himself. The aroma of rich chocolate instantly filled his whiskers.
Chocolaterie Alexandre was an amazing shop filled with beautifully crafted chocolate creations; pralines glistening with nuts, smooth truffles, and colorful marzipan figures. The aroma of rich chocolate instantly filled his whiskers. With everything looking almost too good to eat, Marco didnt know which one he wanted to choose. There was a rumbling in his tummy.
Alexandre, seeing the sparkle in Marco's eyes, laughed. "Welcome, my friend! Would you like to taste a chocolate, or two?" Marco, never one to shy away from chocolate, gave an enthusiastic nod. And as Marco popped the chocolate in his mouth, his eyes widened. The chocolate was smooth and rich. It was pure magic!
Towards the back of the boutique was Alexandre´s workshop and machines for making chocolate. This is where the magic happened! Alexandre explained how he transformed simple cocoa beans into these delectable treats, using only the finest ingredients and traditional Swiss techniques.
With a big "high 5" and a slightly full tummy, Marco thanked Alexandre for his hospitality. He left a newfound appreciation for the art of Swiss chocolate making and a bag full of delicious treats.
As Marco loves to share with families the best places he visited in Nyon, he dedicated a few pages of his experience at Chocolaterie Alexandre in his books about Nyon.
