Hazelnut Hysterie, Sesame Samba, The
Player, and Havana Heat–you know you are in for something extraordinary. For the discerning gourmand I share with you the exotic elixirs of Chocolat Moderne. Below are a few examples of truly seductive
the
will be whisked away in bold, daring directions of delight.
Amarena Mon Amour (Gotta Have It!)
Discrete object of desire, Chocolate covered cherries are taken to new
heights. Big, tart, juicy Italian Amarena cherries finished with a
sophisticated vodka-infused syrup. Irresistible… addictive… a far
cry from merely cordial! A sexy red crocodile box opens to reveal 27 bonbons presented as ruby and gold hand-painted dark chocolate gemstones
tucked into cascading gold tiers ($64.00). Also available in a four tier box – with 36 bonbons. ($84.00)
The Kimono Collection (Gotta Have It!)
An elegant theme inspired by Japan, THE KIMONO COLLECTION chocolates are beautifully designed. Cherry blossoms grace vintage kimono patterns and are echoed in the form of chocolate shapes. Rounding out the artistry of this sophisticated collection is the 19th century woodblock print (ukiyo-e) of two ladies in kimono by the Master Eishi Hosoda (“Chobunsai”). The six flavors in the collection include three made with traditional Japanese ingredients: Shiso (Japanese mint), tamari soy and sesame, and three of our own favorites: strawberry, apricot and pecan which believe it or not are really popular in Japan as well!
Ganaches:
Shiso Soft: dark ganache with Japanese mint and lime
Strawberry Float: white ganache with strawberry
Caramels:
Soy Salt: caramel salted with tamari soy sauce
Apricote Bask: caramel with apricots and armagnac
Pralines:
Sesame Samba: crunchy sesame praline
Pampered Pecan: maple pecan praline
And my all time favorites…the “Bistro Bar” (Gotta Have It!)
The bars are covered
in fine dark chocolate and filled with truffle, caramel and praliné
flavors from artisanal chocolate assortments. The square shape is
unusually elegant. Deep sections provide ample repositories for our
luscious fillings and are easy to separate for relishing one by one. Go for the “Bistro Bar Bundle”–stacked together and tied with a bow, five bistro bars make an excellent gift.
