October Birth Chocolate
Birth Chocolate
Orange Peel Chocolate
Orange Peel Chocolate (Orangette) is a masterpiece of refined confectionery born in 18th century France. Fresh orange peels are carefully processed to remove bitterness, then simmered in sugar to create candied sweetness before being coated with premium chocolate. The six-step manufacturing process requires skilled craftsmanship to achieve the exquisite harmony between orange's refreshing bitterness and chocolate's rich sweetness, creating a sophisticated adult flavor. Those made with dark chocolate feature complex and refined flavors where cocoa and orange peel bitterness interweave beautifully. In Europe, it has long been cherished as a harvest festival gift, with a tradition of enjoying it especially during autumn evenings. Liqueur-infused varieties offer even greater depth, where citrus fragrance harmonizes with alcohol's mellowness.
