"There is a supernatural universe of chocolate to discover. Close your eyes and prepare yourself for a journey to an enchanted world of remarkable and subtle flavors: soft, spicy, sweet, aromatic, light, tender, sharp, bitter, dark, creamy and even white. These magical elements, flirting and melting with one another will bring you to higher places.
Each cocoa bean has its own unique and rare qualities – aroma, appearance and texture -- smooth beans from Ecuador, glistening beans from Brazil, intense and brilliant beans from Venezuela and burnished, pungent beans from New Guinea.
I have always loved working with chocolate, which is demanding and tough to break, yet wonderfully warm and flavorful. Chocolate gives me the freedom to create, to search for new flavor combinations (without blending more than 2 to preserve purity) such as bold spicy blends. Behold the magnificence of a world of flavors through the power of your senses.
A small personal recommendation: never stop tasting chocolates and by all means, never forget to offer chocolate, it is too much fun! Our love story with chocolate must continually unfold."
Pascal Caffet World Champion
Fabrice Gillotte "I believe that Chocolate is an invitation to travel; it allows us to discover a whole new world filled with fruity, sweet and spicy new flavours. The greatest cocoas will empower Chocolate to stimulate all 5 of our senses.
Each smell, texture and blend is the result of personal research dedicated to the individual sharing of this magical instant: TASTING."
Fabrice Gillotte Best French Confectioner
Franck Fresson. "With only a few grammes, chocolates can enflame all of your senses. Firstly, your eyes appreciate the elegance of the robe. Then, the complex and refined scent of cocoa puzzles your sense. Finally, the subtle taste mingles together in your mouth hinting at a fairy tale or a just sweet memory. A great pill for a great thrill."

Philippe Urraca. "For all Master Chocolatiers, the art of fine chocolate is an irresistable calling. For me it is something sacred. I love and adore this all-consuming passion that is at once sweet and captivating. It blends within its delicate science the most royal of cocoas, with the most refined spices and fruits. The cocoa can be instilled with any number of traits. It may be aromatic, subtle, strong, or temperamental. I have learned to take on its unpredictable character and turn it into unique a chocolate creation, synonymous with bliss. I am driven by my passion and I live by my fervent love of chocolate."
