Chocolaterie Laia A handcrafted treasure in the heart of the Basque Country

Laia Chocolate Factory: an artisanal treasure in the heart of the Basque Country

As the custodian of a true chocolate-making tradition in the inland Basque Country, Chocolaterie Laia stands out as one of the last artisanal chocolatiers to master the entire production process, from cocoa bean to finished product. This "Bean-to-Bar" approach guarantees exceptional quality and authentic flavors.

A culinary journey around the world

Chocolaterie Laia carefully selects the finest cocoa beans from exceptional terroirs in Central America, South America, and Africa. Each origin brings its unique aromatic notes, offering a range of varied and surprising flavors.

A welcoming shop in the heart of Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port

It is in the heart of the picturesque village of Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port, an iconic stop on the Way of St. James, that Chocolaterie Laia has chosen to open its third boutique. This enchanting setting invites you to discover the chocolatier's handcrafted products: chocolate bars from different origins, chocolate candies in a variety of flavors, gourmet spreads, and many other delicacies.

A delicious and convivial break

The shop in Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port also offers a tasting area where you can enjoy a smooth hot chocolate, or a refreshing artisanal ice cream, made from milk sourced from local producers.
