Lead with the pralines. The 15-piece and 35-piece gift boxes let you hand-pick fillings, so build around the ganache-filled Romance and the Speculoos Biscuit if you want the cleanest read of what Belgian technique tastes like when the raw material is this direct.
You walk into a ground-floor chocolaterie where the display cases run along two walls and the raw material ships in from Belgium. Paul and Jean-Louis Graindorge founded Duc de Praslin in 1993 and the operation still manufactures every praline and truffle in Thailand using Belgian chocolate-making techniques fused with Thai-grown coffee, macadamias, and tropical fruit.
The praline list includes Romance (milk chocolate ganache), Speculoos Biscuit (white chocolate with Belgian cookie), Apple Cinnamon (dark chocolate coating), Ginger, and Sesame with almond praline. Macarons come in chocolate, pistachio, vanilla, mocha with almonds, and salted caramel. Tablets are available in single-origin configurations that trace different chocolate-producing countries, and the shop stocks sugar-free dark chocolate for the health-focused crowd.
Gift boxes are available in 15-piece and 35-piece sizes with hand-pick customization, or you can buy ballotins in 50g, 100g, 200g, and 500g with decorated packaging. The cafe side offers hot chocolate and pastries for dine-in, and the shop takes same-day delivery orders for Bangkok addresses if you place before 6pm.
RSU Tower sits mid-Sukhumvit 31 between the BTS and Soi 31's deeper shophouse blocks. Street parking on the soi fills early, so motorcycle taxi from Phrom Phong BTS (exit 3) is faster than driving. The shop opens at 8am daily, which makes it one of the earlier chocolate cafes in the Sukhumvit corridor if you want a morning pastry run before the malls open.
