Olivier Chocolatier: "My vote for BEST chocolate" Top 5 Page for this destination Maastricht Shopping Tip by gkitzmil

I've eaten many chocolates and been a judge at a chocolate festival -- and I believe the chocolates from Olivier are some of the best I have eaten. To be fair I have also had chocolates (pralines as they are called here) from Friandises in Wijk, Maastricht -- and they are good. Yet, my personal taste says the Olivier are my favorites.

What to buy: I really enjoy the Truffles and also the bon-bons with cognac!

I recently read of another traveler who had done a taste test of about 20 chocolatiers in Europe and Olivier was not only the best in Maastricht but ranked second of all he tried (the #1 came from Brugge, Belgium).

What to pay: 2.10 Euros for 100 gram, 7,20 Euros for 250 gram (a box of about 15 - 20 candies).
