We are now launching our blog on Wordpress
www.makingchocolates.wordpress.com where I will discuss in detail the making of each chocolate. We just started it, and right now it only talks about one favorite combinations :
coffee and chocolate.
Chocolats Meurens
was born from passion.
It is made by a man whose family in Belgium has been in sweets for generation, but who spend more time studying
fine arts and
music, to finally realize, after many years away from home, that
chocolate is the
perfect medium to carry beauty, harmony, and taste in an ephemeral manner.
Here the
rythm is
texture, the
colors are
flavors, the
moment is
intense and the
memories are
sweet.
Each truffle is made and decorated by hand.
Each wrapping is printed and adapted to order.
Even this website and all its pictures are made by your chocolatier, and some help from great people.
We have a collection of about 26 varieties, some inspired by the great belgian classics from my childhood, and some inspired by mixology and the art of serving fine liquors. Some are pure fantasy, but the collection is open and personal, and new flavors are always coming, and changing.
Since we have that flexibility we can make custom truffles or bars.
Want something with lavender, scotch and blueberry? Just
send us an email, we will tell you how we can do it, and what will be the leading time. (Usually 2-3 days for regular collection, and a week for new flavors).
We know that chocolate is great as a guilty pleasure, but also as a gift. You can personalize your packaging by including a note for the receiver. Just include it in the Paypal comment field. We can also get you a custom ribbon. Our
page for custom chocolate bars allows you to choose the color of the wrapping and the text, as well as the fillings.
If you come by at the right time at the Raines Law Room, you might meet your chocolatier.
Maybe he greeted you tonight. Just ask.
Greetings,
Your chocolatier
