Founder Profile
Loïc Sailler-Berthaz is an artisanal chocolatier and the founder of the Maison. His passion for chocolate was born from a constant pursuit of perfection: understanding the material, mastering the techniques, refining the textures, and balancing the flavors. Over the years, he has cultivated expertise based on precision, rigor, and a love for doing things well.

About the Brand
The Maison Sailler-Berthaz is an artisanal chocolate shop specializing in the production of handmade chocolates. Each creation is made in its workshop located in Marseille, with raw materials selected for their quality.
Maison Sailler-Berthaz was born from a simple idea: returning to basics. To chocolate that tells a story, to true taste, to the right technique. Before being a business, it is a personal journey, a desire to create with sincerity and high standards.
Loïc's history with chocolate dates back to childhood: those moments of sharing, those warm aromas, and that natural fascination with the material. Over time, this passion became a vocation.
The Maison is the result of this evolution: a place where each creation carries an intention, an emotion, and a memory. Maison Sailler-Berthaz pays tribute to artisanal work, patience, care, and precision.
Each bar, each spreadable chocolate, and each mendiant is conceived as a unique creation, crafted with love, respecting the pace of the material and the nobility of the ingredients.
The Maison's ambition: to offer exceptional, authentic, and deeply human chocolates. The raw materials are selected with high standards, favoring simple, transparent ingredients that are consistent with an artisanal approach. Each recipe is designed to reveal balanced flavors, without superfluous additives.
The creations are developed in the workshop in Provence, with precision, high standards, and passion. Each chocolate reflects meticulous work, where the quality of the technique matters as much as the quality of the ingredients.
Eco-Responsible Impact
At Maison Sailler-Berthaz, quality is not up for debate: it is selected, respected, and worked with care.
The raw materials are chosen for their origin, purity, and character:
- Provence almonds: grown locally, renowned for their subtle aroma and incomparable crunch.
- French hazelnuts: selected for their aromatic richness and consistent taste.
- Camargue fleur de sel: a treasure of French terroir that enhances recipes with its finesse.
- Pure cocoa butter chocolates: without soy lecithin, crafted according to the highest standards to reveal their full intensity.
- Madagascar Planifolia vanilla: selected for its aromatic qualities.
- Candied fruits: high-quality and candied locally.
The Maison favors responsible sourcing, French whenever possible, and makes its own pralines, caramels, and fillings to guarantee an authentic flavor.
