Origin & Craftsmanship
This elegant mini bar is part of Allo Simonne’s Barres Créatives line. It features a creamy almond gianduja base made with organic ingredients, delicately infused with dried lavender flowers, and crowned with crunchy poppy seeds. The bar is then enrobed in 70% dark chocolate from the Dominican Republic. 

Flavor Profile
You’ll experience smooth almond praline richness as the foundation, followed by the gentle floral lift from lavender, and finishing with the subtle crunch and dried-fruit notes of poppy seeds. The dark chocolate shell frames the flavors, adding depth and balancing sweetness.

Tasting & Pairing Guide

Begin by letting the chocolate shell soften and melt slowly on your tongue to release the almond-praline core. As it settles, the lavender’s floral aroma emerges, mingling with the nutty sweetness. The poppy seeds then add a crisp texture and a faint earthy-berry accent. Pair this mini bar with a light herbal tea—such as chamomile or mint—to complement the floral notes. For a richer contrast, enjoy it alongside a mild fruit-forward red wine or a floral gin cocktail. On the savory side, crisp biscuits or almond tuiles echo the bar’s nutty character and provide a pleasant textural contrast.

Summary

The Almond, Lavender & Poppy Seeds Mini Bar from Allo Simonne is a beautifully crafted, flavor-forward chocolate that balances nutty richness, floral sophistication, and textural intrigue. It’s ideal for moments when you want a refined treat that’s both delicate and unexpected.

Founded in 2018 in Montreal, Allo Simonne is the brainchild of two Belgians: Quentin Ryckaert and Vincent Coja. Their partnership began in their native Belgium—Quentin with a background in pastry and chocolate from the Hotel Management School in Namur, and Vincent after years in the construction industry. Their shared passion for high-quality, artisanal confections inspired them to enter the chocolate world together.

The brand name is a heartfelt tribute to Quentin’s grandmother, Simonne Allo—a modern woman with a taste for the finer things and a love of sharing. That spirit continues to infuse the brand’s products and philosophy.

Keep in a cool, dry place, away from direct light and strong odors. Store at maximum
18 ° C in its original packaging

Our chocolate makers proudly refrain from using any artificial stabilizers or preservatives in their products, making their creations more temperature-sensitive compared to other premium chocolates.

To ensure the optimal taste experience, it's advisable to store our chocolates in a cool, dry place where the temperature hovers between 16°C and 18°C. Please refrain from refrigerating our chocolates, as this may cause sugar crystallization due to increased humidity, altering their texture and flavor.

On the contrary, if stored in excessively high temperatures, cocoa butter may separate and form a white film on the chocolate's surface. This loss of cocoa butter can lead to the chocolate drying out and, consequently, a potential alteration in flavor. Your mindful storage practices will help preserve the integrity of our delectable chocolates.
