What Is Franuí and Why Is Everyone Obsessed?
Franuí is a wildly popular dessert made from fresh raspberries coated in two layers of chocolate — first white, then either milk or dark. This bite-sized treat has taken the world by storm — and thanks to TikTok, it’s become insanely popular in Paris. So popular, in fact, that finding one feels like going on a real treasure hunt.
📜 The Story Behind Franuí
It all started on a family farm in Patagonia, Argentina, where entrepreneur Gustavo Basso was trying to figure out what to do with a huge surplus of raspberries. The idea of double chocolate coating quickly became a sensation — and the Franuí legend was born.
Since then, it has gone viral on TikTok and Instagram. Foodies in France, the U.S., and beyond fell in love with its rich texture, the satisfying chocolate snap, and its camera-ready look.
Flavors Available in Paris
In Paris, you can usually find Franuí in two classic versions:
- Milk chocolate – a creamy, crowd-pleasing favorite
- Dark chocolate – for those who love an intense cocoa flavor
Each one includes the signature white chocolate inner layer, creating a unique two-tone shell and melt-in-your-mouth texture.
