Description
This Peruvian-origin chocolate offers aromas of cashew nuts, with delicately roasted nuances, complemented by tropical fruits notes and the freshness of lime zest to awaken your taste buds.
“Gran Palo Blanco, an exceptional cacao nestled in the hottest region of Peru, was rediscovered in 2008. This rare cacao, with hints of tea and jasmine, is grown by small farmers in the Chulucanas Valley. Its meticulous fermentation process, natural drying, and full traceability make it a benchmark for organic and fair trade. It also promotes agroforestry that respects biodiversity and nature, without pesticides.”
The toucan was chosen as the illustration for this bas as a symbol of visibility and expression in Peru, representing the bold and memorable sensory journey of this chocolate.

Cacao Experience
In 2019, two brothers, one chocolate maker and the other graphic illustrator, decided to get together to found Cacao Experience - the first exclusively “bean to bar” chocolate factory in Strasbourg.
Etienne is a chocolatier. He is at the origin of the Cacao Experience project; the idea of which came to him when he was still a teenager and bewitched by the psychedelic rock of Jimi Hendrix. This hazy vision became more clear whilst working in France and abroad, giving him a broad and in-depth knowledge of the profession of chocolate maker. Along the way, the young man's intuition became a necessity: to get chocolate out of the mediocrity of the big manufacturers.
Romain is a graphic designer and illustrator, passionate about images. He discovers, through chocolate, an abundant universe rich in history, legends, travel, and politics. He invites his brother to join him in Strasbourg and convinces him to start together.
Here are our two bearded men, quickly joined by Sara to support them, embarked on an ambitious project, with an few means but a DIY spirit: the bare necessities and a few bags of good cocoa in an apartment in Strasbourg.
The ambition of Cacao Experience is simple: To develop a creative range, to be tasted with the eyes and the taste buds, for great chocolate lovers and epicureans.
