Dark Chocolate
If you’re a lover of rich dark chocolate with its deep and dreamy cacao flavors, La Maison du Chocolat has exactly what you’re craving in our collection.
Dark chocolate brings depth of flavor and intense aroma
The clean and satisfying snap of dark chocolate brings with it a luxury finish that lingers long after each bite. Our range includes everything for the dark chocolate lover, whether you’re partial to a chocolate bar with rich undertones, or a chocolate truffles gift box dusted in indulgent cocoa powder. If you prefer to enjoy your dark chocolate with more smoothness, then consider a ganache or praline filling that simply melts in the mouth to create dreamy, memorable moments. We even have fruity pieces in our vegan chocolate collection, as well as almonds and orange peels coated in a delicious layer of dark chocolate.
Ideal for gifting, dark chocolate lovers are passionate about their favorite treat, whether it’s a single square enjoyed as the perfect finish after dinner, or a high-intensity luxury chocolate tasting experience to bring out the flavor of cheeses and wines. Many of the delicacies in our collections have their flavors enhanced by contrasting textures, such as the longer melt of praline, or fruit notes in the form of orange and blackcurrant. Nuts are also a popular addition and create a crunchy texture. If you prefer to sample a variety of chocolates, then in a chocolate assortment box, you’ll find all of the different types of chocolate to enjoy. Each chocolate is made with the highest quality standards, so you are guaranteed a pleasurable experience every time. Our chocolates come ready for gifting with a signature gift bag or personalized gift message.
Experience the intensity of our Parisian cacao creations
For some, artisanal chocolate in the form of smooth milk chocolate is a luxury treat, but for others, nothing can beat the bitter intensity of high cocoa percentage. Our dark chocolate bars have varying intensity levels, each one delicately created with a balanced flavor profile to ensure cocoa delight comes through in each bite. Our chocolate truffles gift box blends dark chocolate with smooth ganache to form a mousse for a completely different taste experience. Dark chocolate bars have that characteristic snap that signals quality and give a closer connection to the chocolate tasting experience.
Each person’s palate has a distinct reaction to the taste and texture of chocolate, as well as its sweetness, so we carefully balance every chocolate creation to cater to individual palates. If you prefer a higher cocoa profile, you’ll get a reduced sweetness, but if you still need that sweet tooth satisfied while keeping the chocolate dark, a hint of sugar, caramel, or vanilla can bring out the best in it. For melting moments, assorted milk chocolates are the way to go if you’d like to create a tasting event after dinner or in an office setting where there are many people with individual tastes.
Dark flavors for sharing and pairing
Dark chocolate tasting as part of a custom chocolate box order allows you to move through a variety of aromas and textures, each giving a different hint of the complexity of the cacao that made it. When sampling chocolates, it’s a good idea to start with a high cocoa percentage, such as a square from a bar, so you can unlock the flavors. Moving towards ganache, praline, and truffles, and later fruit and nut, lets your palette become accustomed to the new flavors one by one. If several people are sharing the same box, such as an after-dinner chocolate treat, then consider serving coffee or a red wine alongside the dark chocolate to bring out the roasted notes.
When baking with La Maison du Chocolate dark bars for a shared dessert or cake, recipes can be made more intense when you need the goal to be depth of flavor as opposed to softness. Dark chocolate given as a romantic gift is sure to excite, and we offer chocolate hearts to give added meaning to the gift, whether it’s Valentine’s chocolate or for a special birthday or anniversary. Many dark chocolate pairings just feel natural, whether it’s with the crunch of praline or soft-centered truffles, each one allowing guests to compare the various finishes.
