Frequently asked questions

We source our chocolate from several producers Worldwide. Harika & Ivan then turn the raw material into amazing shapes and tastes.

A chocolate maker focuses on turning cocoa beans into chocolate, either in buttons or bars. A chocolatier on the other hand uses skilled techniques to transform chocolate into truffes, pralines, and other wonderful treats.

Of course there are many definitions depending on regional bias. In our terminology, a truffle is chocolate mixed with butter or cream to make a soft centre. The truffle is then dipped in chocolate to make a hard shell exterior. A praline is chocolate mixed with caramelised almonds or hazelnuts that have been reduced into a smooth "butter".

No, we trained as chocolatiers. That is why we only make chocolates and not cakes or other deserts.
