Jade Genin
Jade Genin is a small pastry and chocolate shop on Avenue de l'Opéra in Paris that offers handcrafted pralines and pastries. The store features an elegant white and gold interior with chocolates displayed in glass cases, and an open workshop visible to customers.
The shop was founded by Jade Genin, who inherited a long chocolate-making tradition from her family, particularly her father Jacques Génin. This family history continues to shape the boutique's approach to quality and craftsmanship today.
The shop reflects a family tradition in Paris chocolate-making that spans generations. You can watch craftspeople at work shaping and tempering chocolate through windows that open onto the street, making the craft visible to passersby.
The shop is centrally located on Avenue de l'Opéra, easily reached during a walk through central Paris. It is open Tuesday to Saturday, and visitors should be prepared for possible waiting times since the space is small.
The chocolates are often shaped like famous Paris landmarks such as the Louvre Pyramid or the Concorde obelisk. These artistic forms combine culinary craft with architecture, creating pieces that look like small works of art.
