Choclatique Launches “Epitome” Pure 76% Dark Bittersweet Chocolate Truffles

LOS ANGELES - Jan. 7, 2014 - PRLog -- Choclatique, the award-winning artisan chocolate company, has just released—Epitome—Dark Chocolate Truffles. Known for beautiful and luscious hand-crafted chocolates, Choclatique’s latest assortment is inspired by the growing demand for fine, dark, sustainable, heirloom chocolate.

“Epitome is the exemplification of them all,” explains Joan Vieweger, co-founder of the company. “These are truly delicious, gourmet chocolate truffles made with Choclatique’s (76% cacao) ultra-premium, dark chocolate. Each hand-crafted chocolate truffle is an experience unto itself. You’ve never tasted dark chocolate truffles like these—they are the epitome of what great chocolate is supposed to be.”

The ultimate in dark chocolate decadence, Epitome was in development for over two years. The Choclatique artisans created over thirty intensely-flavored truffles which complimented (not overpowered) the delicate 76% dark chocolate, many comprised of ingredients not previously found in other chocolate confections. The fifteen selected flavors represent the best of the best.

The Epitome Collection was previewed at Indulge LA last month at the Century Plaza Hotel in Los Angeles. While packed with flavor, Epitome is free of preservatives, artificial flavors or colors (of any kind), corn syrup and GMO ingredients, and they are all gluten-and nut-free. The ingredients are simple and easy to understand with flavors like Spanish Blood Orange, Remy Martin XO French Cognac, Roasted Hazelnut, Dark Chocolate Italian Nougat, Guinness Irish Stout, Arabica Espresso and St-Germain (Elderflower Liqueur).

This assortment is a most welcome gift for dark chocolate lovers any time of year. It is available in 8-, 15- or 30-piece boxes ($20, $35, $65). Each reusable, stylized leather gift box is hand-tied with a doubled faced satin bow. Choclatique ships nationwide. Complimentary hand-written gift messages are available upon request.
