The House
À la Mère de Famille makes its chocolates in its factory in Chambray lès Tours where it can be close to its shops and draw on the local expertise; but the manufacturing unit, where its home-made recipes and expertise are constantly honed, also consists of three other production plants (bakery and confectionery).
Chocolatier
À la Mère de Famille, a bean to bar chocolatier
The À la Mère de Famille approach is characterized by the direct sourcing and strict selection of all raw materials, throughout the entire bean to bar process. For the Dolfi family, the proud owners of the company, it is impossible to promote and enjoy traditional confectionery here in France without also considering production conditions elsewhere.

Famille
A family business
Everything starts with a passion and for Étienne – the head of the Dolfi family – it was his passion for bonbons, a love also shared by his older children, Sophie and Steve. Jane and Jonathan, the younger siblings, joined later, each bringing their own skills and acquiring new ones during the course of this delicious adventure!
