Chocolate art in Avignon

In the rain today, we took a drive and walked through the square in Avignon. It was busy but not full like the summer. We stopped by the window at a favorite patisserie where in the windows there were beautiful chocolates left from Easter. The figures ranging from typical bunnies and ducks, to turtles and fish with such fine detail as many sculptures, reminding me of a childhood ice cream and candy shop in the town center which always had beautiful displays of seasonal candies an goodies. Missing the Gruning's famous coffee chip ice cream tonight but happy to be in Provence where beauty still lives on.
