Sève Saint-Antoine Chocolaterie Patisserie, Lyon

Sève Saint-Antoine Chocolaterie Patisserie, Lyon

Sève is a home to master chocolate maker and artisan pastry chef from Lyon, Richard Sève. Awarded best patissier of the Rhône-Alpes region in 1999 and ranked among the top 10 chocolatiers in France, Sève is a trendsetter who is faithful to traditional recipes.

Pursuant to his dedication, he selects the ingredients in the region of origin and with the utmost care. In 2017, Sève joined a small group of French chocolatiers who travel the world in search of the best cocoa beans to produce their own chocolate, from bean to bar.

If you walk into his shop from the sun, your eyes may need a moment to adjust to the elegantly dark interior: a smart, modern touch that highlights the gems gleaming from under the glass counter tops.

Here, you will certainly find something to satisfy your inner sweet tooth – from delicate, sweet crisps and mouthwatering panettone to rich chocolates and home-made fruit jellies. Make sure to try their authentic praline tarts or the specialty sweet called Les Pierres des Monts d’Or (The Stones of the Golden Mount). The first ever savoury macaroons of France, created by Sève, are also available in a variety of flavors – peach, apricot, caramel, rose petal, etc., – each stamped with the Sève insignia.

Member of the prestigious Relais Desserts association, as of January 2020 Richard Sève has been appointed Academician of Chocolate by the Académie Française du Chocolat et de la Confiserie.
