Indulgence with Benefits: The Art of Fine Chocolate
These artisanal dragees offer more than just exquisite taste. Dark chocolate, the foundation of many pieces, is rich in flavonoids and antioxidants, known for their potential heart health benefits. The nut-based selections provide essential nutrients including vitamin E, healthy fats, and protein.
The fruit-based dragees combine the natural goodness of fruits with the pleasure of fine chocolate. Black currants are particularly high in vitamin C and antioxidants, while ginger offers digestive benefits and anti-inflammatory properties. Cinnamon, paired with apple, is known for its blood sugar regulation properties.

The Heritage of Belgian Chocolate Mastery
Belgian chocolate-making tradition dates back to the 17th century, with the country's reputation for excellence solidified during the early 1900s. The meticulous process of creating these dragees builds on this rich heritage, combining traditional techniques with modern flavor innovations.
The art of dragee-making itself has roots in medieval European confectionery, where sugar-coating techniques were developed to preserve nuts and fruits. This collection honors these time-tested methods while introducing contemporary elements like metallic finishes and unique flavor combinations.
The inclusion of global flavors like ginger alongside European classics like black currant represents the evolution of chocolate craftsmanship in our interconnected world, while maintaining the highest standards of Belgian chocolate-making tradition.
