Maison THOMAS
About us
Creator of gourmet memories, since 1956
La Confiserie des Arcades (Maison Thomas) is a family business founded in 1956 by Gilbert Thomas, under the arcades of Saint-Étienne's City Hall, in France. His grandson, Tristan Thomas, has run it since 2011.
What began as a grocery shop has become a specialist house: French chocolate, regional French confectionery (Nancy bergamot sweets, Cambrai bêtises, Flavigny aniseed sweets, calissons…), premium sugared almonds, specialty coffee and tea. The shop carries nearly 2,000 products. This website offers a selection, shipped across France and abroad.
We don't make our products: we create gourmet memories. It starts with selection: finding the right makers, tasting, comparing, then advising you. We know most of our suppliers personally, and with some of them the relationship goes back several decades.
"We've been here for so long that our story is closely tied to that of Saint-Étienne and its people."
In 2026, the house celebrates its 70th anniversary.
