Overview
When Angélique (Isabelle Carré) is hired as a chocolatier at Jean-René's (Benoît Poelvoorde) small chocolate shop, neither one has more than cocoa and sugar on their minds. Their passion for chocolate making, however, soon inspires a fledgling romance. The only thing standing in their way is sheer shyness. Despite developing affections, both Angélique and Jean-René maintain their distance from one another; each suffers from crippling bashfulness, preventing the confession of their feelings.
As the future of the chocolate shop becomes compromised by its owner's dismal business skills, he must re-examine his cautious and awkward ways. Working behind him all the way is Angélique, who recognises the dire need to overstep her personal boundaries if she is to save the business and any chance of a future with Jean-René. Directed by Jean-Pierre Améris, this French romantic comedy will remind you that the sweetest things in life are worth taking the risk for.
