At J. Chocolatier we believe that the
most important element of crafting a gourmet chocolate is what
goes into it. For this reason, we use only the finest ingredients.
Our chocolates contain fresh heavy cream, European butter, organic
spices, fresh citrus zest, gourmet quality fruit puree, sipping
quality liquors, local honey, and Nielsen-Massey Vanilla Beans.
We do not
use preservatives, extracts, concentrates or flavorings. We use
chocolate couverture from El Rey of Venezuela and Valrhona of
France. The beans from El Rey are single origin Criollo beans, the
most coveted in the world. El Rey buys their beans from small
farmers in Venezuela who grow their crop under the shade of the
jungle canopy. El Rey is committed to biodiversity and pays their
farmers premium prices for the high quality beans that they
produce.
Our classic
truffles are made with single origin Manjari chocolate from
Valrhona. This particular chocolate couverture has a cult-like
following among discriminating chocolate lovers. The Valrhona
cocoa powder is deep red and has a silky texture. It is without a
doubt, the best we’ve ever tasted.
Our
chocolates and confections are made by hand in small batches. We
offer a mix of classic and avante guard flavors. Our flavors
change with the seasons, and include special holiday-only
selections. We encourage you to visit our site frequently to find
out about our latest offerings or sign up for our email list.
Also, if you have a suggestion about a particular flavor or
product please feel free to contact us. |
