Paris shop windows of any kind are always so fabulous. The windows of patisseries and chocolatiers are the ones I love the best. I finished up my latest travels in Italy with a few days in Paris. As it was Easter season, many of the chocolatiers had their windows decked out in Easter chocolates.
To kick off Easter weekend, this Friday in photos are all about the Easter chocolates of Paris chocolatiers. Come take a peek in the windows with me. They look almost too pretty to eat, don't they?

That was an easy and fun one!
btw - just wondering - is there any "fair trade" concern/movement in Europe (France & Italy)? Where does most of the chocolate come from?

These are just beautiful-I wish I was there indulging.

I'll have all of the dark chocolate, thank you. The buck tooth bunny is too cute to eat.
