More Than Just Chocolate Bars
Each Valrhona bar is a story. Of origin. Of terroir. Of craft.

They come in a generous 70g (2.46 oz) format, wrapped in golden paper to preserve the aromas and protect the chocolate from light. The recyclable outer packaging is resealable , so you can enjoy your bar in several sittings, if you can resist finishing it in one...
Inside, you’ll find tasting notes ranging from bright red fruits to toasty biscuit , roasted cocoa , floral , woody , or vanilla, each profile expressing the soul of the cocoa bean.
