Because there are a thousand and one ways to be a mom – by heart, by blood, by adoption, every day and for always – this Mother’s Day is the perfect opportunity to say thank you. Whether you want to give a little jewelry, a sweet treat, a magical experience, or a moment just for two (or more!), Paris is full of treasures to make the eyes of those who nurture us, inspire us, and love us shine. Here are our favorite ideas to celebrate love in all its forms.


Gifts to Offer

Just a few steps from Pigalle Square, you'll find the entire Le Chocolat Alain Ducasse range at this shop located on rue des Martyrs. Here, you'll discover contemporary craftsmanship that respects tradition. The Parisian factory roasts, crushes, and grinds cocoa beans to transform them into real chocolate masterpieces. For Mother's Day, chef chocolatier Quentin Ducasse has created a box of Hazelnut Praline and Vanilla and Fruit Paste Nuggets, a delightful boost of deliciousness that dreams are made of.
