Popular French Bakery Expands To Parsippany Area

PARSIPPANY, NJ — A beloved French bakery has officially opened a new location just around the corner from Parsippany.

Chocolatine celebrated the soft opening of its second location this past weekend at 684 Speedwell Avenue in Morris Plains, right next to Arthur's Restaurant.

The authentic French bakery is owned by French baker Cédric Hosy and his wife, Elaine Castro. Their first location, in Denville, opened in 2023, but they’ve been baking croissants for wholesale to restaurants, hotels, and markets since 2020.

In addition to its signature chocolate croissant, Chocolatine offers a variety of treats, including individual tarts, macarons, beignets, Danishes, chocolate chip cookies, and savory options like quiches and a tomato and mushroom tart.

"Our mission is to create authentic French pastries that can elevate one's sense of sight, touch, smell and taste. Our bakers use classical techniques to make high quality and handmade products," the bakery's website states.

According to officials, the new location features more seating than the original Denville site, providing guests with a comfortable space to relax and enjoy their pastries.

The new location is open during the following hours:

• Friday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
• Saturday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
• Sunday, 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.
