Chocolatine

Chocolatine Chocolatine offers a place where you can enjoy sweets without compromising your diet, health, and animals. Cakes are to be enjoyed by everyone!

Why did I choose that lonnnng name? "Tu veux quoi pour ton goûter" is a sentence that belongs to my childhood and always bring back warm memories to me; After school, on weekends and, on holidays spent at my grand-parents' house, they always asked us what we wanted to eat for snack time (4pm)

As I am a cake lover, this was my favourite time of the day! I could have at my grand-parents a piece of

bread with a chocolate bar. And with my parents a Chocolatine (In my county Pain au chocolat does not exist! We call it Chocolatine) or a plain donut or any other cake they would bake on sundays. I could not think of any other name to describe what I wanted to share. It was a family moment full of laughter, love and, CAKES. Hope I can bring you some of this! Tu veux quoi pour ton goûter?

Our Story

Why did I choose Chocolatine?

Chocolatine means pain au chocolat in French but only a small part of France (the South West) uses it. And we are quite strong on keeping it like this. It’s an idiom of our regional culture hence, of my roots. Not only does it represents our region but it’s also a sentence that belongs to my childhood and always brings back warm memories to me; On my way back from school when my mum or dad would pick us up, they would stop by the bakery. It was goûter/snack/oyatsu time! As I am a cake lover, this was my favourite time of the day! I could have at my grand-parents a piece of bread with a chocolate bar. And with my parents a Chocolatine or a plain donut with some sugar on top of it or any other cakes they would bake on sundays.

As a vegan, as a very allergic (food and many others) person, as a mum of a daughter with also food issues and, finally as a wife of a husband with egg intolerance, we couldn’t enjoy cakes of any sorts anymore. How horrible is this? I decided this was not fair to all of us facing allergies or choices we made. A plant based diet doesn’t mean we are starving or do not like food (we just love all living beings). Being intolerant/allergic does not mean either restrictions! So I “create” try to reproduce the cakes I used to love as a child but for everyone. Some of you have tasted them and you couldn’t see the difference with a “normal” cake ^^

In conclusion, because it’s becoming rather long.... I couldn’t think of any better name to describe what I wanted to share: my roots, my heart. And as a last word, my cakes are different, some would say not common but what is normal? Let’s erase differences. It’s in the end all about love, compassion and understanding. Hope I can bring you some of this! Chocolatine
