Choose iconic varieties like Guanaja 70%, Caraïbe 66%, or Jivara 40%. Or introduce your guests to indulgent chocolates like Azélia and Caramélia, or the Valrhona Inspiration range.
Add Norohy vanilla , an exceptional ingredient available as pods, extract, or pod paste. Another option for adding delightful floral notes to your recipes: Bulgarian rose water and Norohy orange blossom water. Two new products you absolutely must try.
Consider Italian dried fruits from Pariani and Sosa . Opt for IGP Piedmont hazelnuts, and your favorite pastry chef will be hooked. From the moment she opens the bag of whole or chopped hazelnuts, the roasted notes will win her over. For pistachio lovers, Pariani sources its "Verde di Bronte" variety from Sicily.
Finish if you wish with some utensils , such as a kitchen apron or a Valrhona spatula.
In short, here you are with the perfect and personalized gift for Mother's Day.
