Bonbons a Paris?
The oldest sweets shop in Paris, and arguably the most fascinating, is A la Mère de Famille, located (since 1761) at 35, rue du Faubourg Montmartre, in the 9th arrondissement.
Two other exceptional shops are Maison Boissier and Chocolaterie Servant, both in the 16th.

Paris--best pastries to try
At Pierre Hermé, be sure to try the pastry called "Carrément Chocolat." It is incredible.
They also have a fabulous "tartelette au café," something I haven't come across anywhere else.
