The Original Creations are the fruit of our pastry-chocolatier's imagination. After a long process of blending and flavor balancing, he created six original bars:
Dark chocolates:
Almonds and Hazelnuts: carefully selected and 100% organic almond and hazelnut shards, bringing a delicate aroma and a crunchy texture.
Raspberry: A gourmet combination enhanced by the voluptuousness of intense and tangy raspberries.
Timut Pepper: A surprising alliance, due to the subtlety of Timut pepper, with astonishing notes of citrus and grapefruit.
Filled with Praline: A perfect blend of 60% dark chocolate and homemade hazelnut praline.
Orange: a delight with the refreshing fragrance of orange.
Ginger: A surprising and delicious treat with the spicy taste of ginger.
Milk chocolate:
Fleur de Sel: A perfect combination of sweet and salty flavors that melt the taste buds.
The Pure Origins are crafted by our chocolatier from cocoa beans sourced from organic farming, carefully selected from around the world. In these Pure Origin recipes, our artisan highlights the richness of cocoa, creating exquisite bars where each country is distinctly highlighted. Each bite is an invitation to travel, a delight for chocolate lovers to be fully enjoyed.
To choose your perfect chocolate bar, several elements must be taken into account. First, determine your preference in terms of type: dark or milk. You can also consider the percentage of cocoa, which determines the intensity. The higher the percentage, the more intense it will be.
If you are looking for specific flavors and a particular original taste, turn to our Creations. On the other hand, if you want a creation that fully brings out its natural flavor, opt for a Pure Origin.
Choosing your bar should be a delicious and personal experience. Follow your gourmet instinct to choose the one that suits you.
The origin of your chocolate will be decisive for the flavor it will provide in your mouth. Indeed, each chocolate has its own character that varies depending on the cocoa. According to their origin, their notes vary. To find the one that suits you, rely on our descriptions. You will then be able to fully savor the character of each one.
Many people think that to choose a good chocolate it must contain at least 70% cocoa. This is a misconception. Its quality does not depend at all on its percentage. This idea is actually quite reductive. It is mainly the choice of beans that contributes to the success of a quality chocolate. To prove it to you, we invite you to try, for example, the Valrhona Equatorial 55% dark chocolate. The composition of chocolate is regulated. Dark chocolate must indeed contain between 43% and 100% cocoa and its butter. The rest is made up of sugar and aroma. The higher the percentage, the more intense the taste will be and the less sweetness present.
Our bars are entirely made in France, in our workshop located in Provence, in the Drôme region. We craft bars from ingredients sourced from organic farming, where each one of them possesses its own richness of aroma. Each bar can be the perfect little pleasure to offer during reunions or even to complement a corporate gift. They will please chocolate lovers!
