We ended up here as we had read a review on down about a man who didn’t even like jam and his sister brought him some and he was hooked!
What a beautiful shop, exquisite service and the jam is absolutely outstanding!! From the moment we entered the small shop we were greeted with a calming smile, the lady took great pride and patience showing us the three flavours of strawberry, offering us both samples and talking us through the flavours. Raspberry jam with champagne or rose.. they also do a very nice hazelnut spread!!

We stopped here on a food tour and loved it! Ended up going back the next day and buying A LOT of jam to take home. The variety was incredible and the flavors unexpected. Really loved this place!

I entered to this shop on a tour. The sales associate could not be kinder or more helpful if she tried. She was so lovely! The preserves were delicious and they had such a wonderful variety. I would definitely go back to buy more!

I discovered this place while visiting Lille, France. It was like paradise. Full of confitures. Different flavors and all. We bought Mango,coco, and white chocolate. So yummy!! I brought it back with me to Canada and ever since I've been trying to find a way to deliver 20 of them to home, hahaha. Seriously, delicious.

I read about this store in an article about Patricia Wells. I think they may have about a total three locations. It was well worth tracking down. We had the place to ourselves and out sales person was Evelyne. She was just lovely and spoke beautiful English as compared to my awful French. She asked about our favorite fruit and gave many free tastes without being asked. There were jams both sweet and savory plus chocolate & caramel. They only other thing other than the jam were spoons for serving. Flavors such as lavender & apricot, raspberry & champagne, or violet & black current were a few that we purchased. They make lovely gifts as well and a variety of sizes. Enjoy!

This for me is hands down the best jam ever!
I am in love with this place and I am not even a jam person to begin with. My sister bought me to this jam place 5 years ago, the raspberry with rose changed my life! Warm baguette with butter and jam, so simple but sooooo good! The taste is vibrant instead of the mediocre taste from most jams in US. This year we came back to Paris, I specifically checked in a bag so that we can bring the jam home!
Btw they do ship to US but the shipping cost is quite hefty but I still think it’s worth it! Go try it, for yourself and excellent souvenir, but you may end up keeping them all for yourself!

I found this place as I was walking down the Marais. I was not planning on buying any honey or jams but I walked in out of curiosity. I went in and started tasting. The staff was really friendly and let us try as many as we wanted. I ended up buying 8 bottles. Some honey and some jam. They offered to gift wrap and I asked them to give it to me to take with me so I could wrap when I flew back home. Over all great and a nice little place to grab a souvenir that isn't the normal eiffel tower things.

I walked by several times in the Marais district thinking that it would be more of a tourist shop, but decided to go in with my wife and daughter back in August. There are so many types of confitures to choose from and we tasted almost every single one. My daughter was in heaven as she kept being surprised by the lovely combination of flavors on offer.
We wound up buying just three as we were dreading carrying back to the US jars of confitures, but the staff was extremely helpful in packing the jars in their ready to carry packs and we just finished our favorite: Pear and Vanilla.
I am heading back to Paris this week and will be making a pilgrimage to the shop to restock with the best confitures we have ever had.

This is a small, unpretentious little shop on a great street in the Marais. It's easy to miss it -- but don't!
Visited La Chambre aux Confitures just before closing in early November. No high pressure sales. Just sumptuously fruit-laden jams to test-taste. Salesperson (wish I knew his name) spoke impeccable English and was very informative about the "confitures." He also played fabulous music -- and responded to my query about my favorite track (Thibaut Pez's "Garcon Formidable") which I'd never heard before.
Anyhow, I purchased 3 jars -- all of which have received rave reviews from my family. Not too sweet, so the flavors of the fruits (apricots, strawberries, and raspberries) are true and unsullied.
