Érico

Québec City’s premiere chocolatier since 1987, Erico is the place to go when mid-afternoon fatigue hits. The small storefront stocks an impressive selection of sweets, with everything from home-baked cookies to a dizzying array of truffles and a lengthy hot chocolate menu. There are a few gourmet goods as well; the mini fleur de sel fondue kit makes a wonderful gift. Make sure to stop by Érico’s chocolate museum, located next to the shop.
