Yea. Ghyslain just opened a shop in my small town. Besides chocolates they do pastries and have a small Bistro. I have yt to try them out but their story on the web site is nice for such a small town place.
An artist can express himself in many ways. For Ghyslain Maurais, it has been through chocolate and pastries.
Born in Québec, Ghyslain found his culinary passion while working in the field to fund his architectural education. Soon after, he changed career paths and entered the Institue du Tourisme et d'Hotelerie du Québec.
Certified in French pastry, chocolate décor, candy making, blown/pulled sugar and bread making, Ghyslain has served as the head chef for the Canadian Delegations in New York and London. His career includes experience as both a pastry and executive chef in first class restaurants and hotels.
From Québec to Union City
While working at the Inn of Versailles in Ohio, he met his wife, Susan. Together they relocated to her hometown in Union City, Indiana to establish Ghyslain Chocolatier.
Since 1999, connoisseurs of fine french pastries and gourmet chocolate have visited Union City to enjoy tours and shopping in the chocolate boutique.
In May 2008, Ghyslain expanded with the opening of a new location in Richmond, Indiana. The full service bistro serves lunch and dinner. Patrons can enjoy shopping in the boutique which features pastries, homemade gelato, and a wide assortment of Ghyslain's gourmet chocolates. Then in June 2009 a third location opened in Zionsville, Indiana in Nancy Noel art gallery, The Sanctuary. Lunch is served Tuesday to Saturday from 11am and 4pm and our boutique is open form 10am to 5pm. It is a superbe venue location for wedding, shower, private party.
Chocolate des beaux arts
The fine art of making artisanal chocolate
Ghyslain's signature chocolates are one-of-a-kind hand painted masterpieces created with the finest ingredients. Each chocolate features a unique design detailed with hand brushed color. And yes, they taste as incredible as they look.
