A great trend in food trade: Single-Plantation Chocolates and Cocoa Pastes
Cookery is always looking for inspiration, new ways, new tastes, and new harmonies. For more than 50 years, chefs unconvincingly tried to use chocolate in salty foods: nowadays, on the menus of restaurants, chocolate is almost only used for the preparation of desserts. Thanks to their characteristic aromatic richness, Single-Plantation Chocolates allow to joyfully reconsider the use of chocolate in cooking. Used like spices or seasoning, they allow to create new harmonious and even remarkable gustatory blends. Now, in order to discover these harmonies, please let Philippe Parc introduce you to new horizons... You will then be able to tempt your own clients by presenting one of more of these dishes on your menu, or by offering this Tasting Menu for special occasions such as Valentine’s Day, Christmas, or even for a monthly tasting diner.
Chocolately yours, Marc CLUIZEL Cacaofèvier - Chocolatier
Th e Michel Cluizel Chocolate Factory A family firm with continuity: In 1948, Michel Cluizel created his first chocolates alongside his parents. Today, he transforms cocoa beans into exceptional chocolates in his Normandy workshops employing 200 people. More than 6 000 taste professionals use or retail these chocolates in more than 30 countries.
A rare trade: ‘Cacaofèvier’ Cluizel Chocolate Factory is one of the world’s few cocoa bean transformers. Since 1997 it has adopted a specific approach, developping durable relations with renowned planters in a spirit of sustainable fair trade.
Unequalled Quality commitments: • all our products are manufactured in our workshops • all our dark, white and milk Couverture Chocolates are guaranteed:
The idea of this “100% Single-Plantation Chocolate” tasting menu is to give a different interpretation of chocolate on the gustatory plane, in order to use it all through the meal, more particularly in salty foods. Just like spices, which make food tastier and stronger, Single-Plantation Chocolates and Cocoa Pastes allow to “reinterpret” traditional dishes and to adapt them in a delicious and original way. Through these 8 dishes, I wished to put forward several “chocolate harmonies” with foie gras, seafood, fish, meat, cheese, and of course, desserts. These remarkable gustatory harmonies are only possible to create thanks to Single-Plantation Chocolates, which contrary to usual couverture chocolates, do not express a balance but reveal real aromatic specificities. Of course, for each dish, the choice of a chocolate is decisive. As for Single-Plantation Cocoa Pastes, they are one of the many secrets used by pastry cooks and chefs. After the surprise, please let yourself be tempted by this new way of cooking! Philippe PARC, MOF, Craftsman of the Year (Pastry) World Champion (Pastry, Chocolate making, Ice cream)

Incomparable plantations, soils, gustatory flavours Single-Plantation Chocolates They have nothing to do with other chocolates. Usual chocolates, or even single-origin chocolates and single-region chocolates, consist of cocoas grown in several plantations. These couverture chocolates are therefore collections of cocoas from very different countries, regions or soils. They therefore aim at a balanced taste and can mainly be distinguished by their cocoa contents. Unlike usual chocolates, Single-Plantation Chocolates consist of cocoa beans from one plantation only, and can be compared to “châteauxâ€? in wine trade. This is why they reveal very characteristic gustatory flavours, peculiar to their own specific soil. Used in cookery or pastry, these very characteristic gustatory flavours allow to create remarkable gustatory harmonies with other flavours, be they salty or sweet.
Single-Plantation Cocoa Pastes They are one of the many secrets used by in cookery and pastry. Used in very small quantities, they strengthen the flavours of couverture chocolates from the same plantation. Used alone, they sublimate a dish or a dessert with their specific gustatory tastes, from the unique soil of cocoa beans.
