Chaleur B Chocolat, the artisanal chocolate manufacturer, prides itself on being intimately involved in the entire chocolate-making journey, from the cocoa bean to the final delectable bar. Since 2008, their passion has driven them to import and carefully select raw cocoa beans, embarking on a meticulous process that spans from roasting the beans to crafting "bean-to-bar" chocolate bars, which involves crushing, winnowing, liquor creation, chocolate production, conching, and tempering.

This arduous and intricate process demands an abundance of love, patience, and unwavering dedication, as the creation of a single chocolate bar can extend over a span of up to seven working days. Not content with merely making chocolate, Chaleur B Chocolat also delves into the world of pastries and confectionery.

With a team of exceptional pastry chefs, they aspire to elevate indulgence and creativity to new heights. Their aim is to continually push the boundaries of what is possible in the world of chocolate, and their extraordinary creations, led by talents such as Frédérike Bélair and Joëlle Hamelin, promise to take your taste buds on a heavenly journey of flavors.

The introduction of their pastry and confectionery studio serves as a platform to test their chocolates and embark on the creation of desserts that are not only exceptional but also 100% original. Their shared passion for chocolate unites a diverse group of individuals, each with origins as varied as the regions that produce chocolate.

When you explore their offerings, whether on their website or in their physical store, you can be assured of quality products that come with a commitment to transparency at every stage of manufacturing. Established and unyielding in their pursuit of excellence, Chaleur B Chocolat allows no compromises in the creation of their chocolates and confections.

Their quest for the finest origins of cocoa takes them on a journey that spans from Central America to South America, extending even to Africa and Asia, in search of flavors that capture the essence of the terroirs. Furthermore, they prioritize equitable and fair transactions, ensuring that producers and creators are treated justly and benefit from their shared endeavors.

To achieve chocolates with unique and unmistakable aromatic profiles, Chaleur B Chocolat carefully selects and imports the finest green and raw cocoa beans. The precision of their master roaster, @Mathieu Claude Labrecque, sets the tone with expertly roasted beans, and then their chocolatier, Tania Leclerc, meticulously oversees every stage of creation. The result is a range of tasting chocolates that stand out for their exceptional and distinctive flavors.

Cocoa mass, organic sugar.

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.

Luminous Lumina

Set aside the coy nature of the package, which doesn't tell you the origins (Dominican Republic's Duarte province/Guatemala's Alta Verapaz region) or types of beans (Trinitario/Nacional/Criollo/hybrids). But then, French vintners don't put the grape varietals on their bottle labels, and that's okay. Here, the nuanced sequence of tastes make this bar stand out. As a friend observed, the flavors obtained from beans, fermentation, roasting, and conching change the way one thinks of how chocolate--dark, slightly sweetened chocolate--should taste. Bon appetit!
