No visit to Spitalfields is complete without a trip to Verde & Company, run by Harvey Cabaniss, and the only supplier – so far as I know – of Pierre Marcolini chocolates in London, the best chocolates in the world, as well as of assorted baskets, knicknacks, silver teapots and Yorkshire Parkin:-

They may be good but are they actually better than William Curley?
Yes, there’s no doubt hot competition, but Curley doesn’t have a shop in the Grand Sablon.
FYI Pierre Marcolini is opening a stand alone shop on Marylebone High Street — almost across from Daunt. One can now indulge in every vice and pleasure — what a change from when I moved to Regent’s Park 20 years ago.
Lucky you ! And I’ve discovered you can buy them in Selfridge’s. But I still like the fact that they’re stocked in a Spitalfields general store. Charles
