Chocolate/Desserts
To create these delectable confections, Les Chevaliers d'Argouges starts by simmering fresh slices of fruit in sugar until they have been perfectly candied. Then each piece is dipped into a tray of lucious chocolate. Each bite is a playful contrast between silken chocolate and chewy, candied fruit. The pineapple slices are enrobed in white chocolate, while the orange slices are coated with a layer of 70% dark chocolate.
Based in Normandy since 1991, and on its site at Moyon since 2004, the family firm of Les Chevaliers d'Argouges has proved a commercial and financial success. The basic rule is simple - they only make the very best with the very best. That is why at Les Chevaliers d'Argouges the master chocolatiers insist on the top quality cocoa beans (only Criollo, Forastero and Trinitario are used) from the best production sites in West Africa (mainly Ivory Coast, Ghana and Nigeria.) For the dark chocolate ‘tuiles' range hazelnuts from Piedmont are selected; all the candied fruits are from French confectioners and the best Calvados and Pommeau produced in Normandy goes into the liqueur chocolates.
