Elvira

There is a long history behind me: a history tied to the handwritten pastry recipes of the ancient Sicilian monasteries, the best in patience and perfection. One thing is certain in my heart: the connection with nature teaches us to be artisans, respecting the raw ingredients. There is a dream in front of my eyes: the chocolate and its magic.

The Workshop

A few years ago we completely revamped the production process of our chocolate, opening a whole production line “bean-to-bar”: from the bean to the chocolate bar. I think that only when the whole circle is completed that a chocolatier can consider herself a real artisan. A process that can teach us every time something new about this amazing raw material.

Cocoa

Find out everything

We have been conducting for a long time a vast and deep experimentation work on the raw material, studying the rarest and most precious cocoa varieties grown in plantations from every corner of the world: from Colombia, Bolivia, Nicaragua, Peru, Vietnam, Mexico, Papua New Guinea, Madagascar, every day we receive the beans from which our mono origin bars are born. Some of them can still amaze and fill us with emotions.
