Tonton Maboule — Local services in La Rochelle

I was expecting my standard Pistachio and Dark Chocolate flavours, but they didn't have them. The girl recommended something called a Cacao Sorbet and I was like "no thanks, that doesn't sound creamy".

Have faith, she said, and boy am I glad she did!! 🤤😋🤤

I have never eaten anything like this. And I travel A LOT. Weird, but delicious mix of cacao, hints of what could be lemongrass or some kind of citrus (?!), you taste some salt that makes it go down so smoothly.

Don't be fooled by the facade not being as ornate as Ernest or located in the city centre. An experience no one...

We came across this artisan icecream bar when we were driving around. As there was a que to be served we figured it must be a good icecream shop. We were right. Wow, this was very good! 2 boules were maybe slightly too much but it was very very good icecream indeed! Loads of flavours, nice normal price and the taste was very authentic. Let's just say...if we ever come back to this area....we will be back to this...

Cela fait bientôt 5 ans que je suis cliente fidèle avec mes enfants ! Pas besoin de carte de fidélité, la qualité des glaces et la gentillesse de l'équipe fidélisent déjà ! Le glacier Ernest mais aussi le glacier La Martinière à St Martin de ré (les glaces ont le goût de l'eau) peut s'inquiéter face à Tonton Maboule !

Fan de chocolat, je vous conseille vivement la glace Chocolat Tonka et en cas de rupture le sorbet Chocolat : ils sont excellents (pas meilleur ailleurs même chez le fameux chocolatier Fink à Poitiers) !

J'apprécie pouvoir avoir deux parfums dans un petit pot ou petit cornet pour les enfants (mais aussi pour les petites faims des grands gourmands-chose pas possible chez les glaciers cités ci-dessus). Les quantités sont généreuses pour un prix raisonnable (contrairement aux glaciers cités ci-dessus qui servent des petites quantités pour un prix plus onéreux et un goût moins bons).

Le +: la glace Licorne 🦄

Merci beaucoup de nous offrir des glaces...
