The Vosges Haut-Chocolat mission is to create a luxury chocolate experience rooted in a sensory journey of bringing about awareness to indigenous cultures through the exploration of spices, herbs, roots, flowers, fruits, nuts, chocolate and the obscure. To ensure this, Owner/Chocolatier, Katrina Markoff, personally chooses every spice, flower and chocolate that is flown into their Chicago kitchen.
La Parisienne is a traditional dark chocolate cocoa. Silky swirls of cream gliding, intoxicating and arousing. A winter warming, rich and flowing with cacao and Madagascar vanilla. Melting drips of chocolate intertwined with glorious vanilla. C'est la Vie! The perfect Hot Chocolate/Chocolat Chaud.
Voted #1 hot chocolate by Rachael Ray out of 75 contenders.

Comments about La Parisienne Couture Cocoa:
If your tastes run to rich, dark hot chocolates-- the kind that are more liquid chocolate than mild cocoa-- this is one of the best I've had. It's silky-smooth, very dark, with excellent depth of flavor. The directions on the back are imposing (calling for as much cream as milk, and a hand blender!) but frankly not really necessary; a simple whisk and a saucepan of hot milk is quite sufficient. Be warned: even without the cream, this is incredibly rich and *quite* strongly flavored. Only serve to serious chocaholics, and take the serving size seriously.
