Chuao Chocolatier is the first Venezuelan Chocolatier based in the United States. The company was founded in 2002 and is quickly becoming known for its fusion chocolate which blends chocolate with fresh, natural ingredients creating unusual and unexpected flavors.
I was sent a couple of varieties of chocolates from chuao, either would make a great gift for Valentine’s Day. The first selection is the Love Child BonBon Collection featuring dried strawberries surrounded in port wine infused dark chocolate ganache, I love the combination of strawberries and dark chocolate. The dark chocolate is so rich and the strawberries are tangy with a little bit of the sweetness left in them.
The second variety is the Aphrodisiac Heart Bonbon Collection featuring an assortment of caramels infused with several different flavors and then covered in chocolate, what you can expect to receive is below.
Salt Butter Caramel: Soft caramel with a bit of sea salt in dark chocolate*.
Sweet Passion: Exotic passion fruit* cooked into soft caramel in milk chocolate*.
Meyer Lemon Mojito: Meyer lemon caramel infused with fresh mint* cream in white chocolate.
Strawberry Seduction: Sweet strawberry* caramel with a touch of tangy balsamic in dark chocolate*.
Rosemary Salted Caramel: Salt butter caramel infused with fresh rosemary* in milk chocolate*.
Our favorites had to be the Salt Butter Caramel and Strawberry Seduction. The Sweet Passion and Meyer Lemon Mojito are ok, if you really like Rosemary you will probably like the Rosemary Salted Caramel, I just do not like Rosemary mixed with anything sweet.
