Choclatique-The Fanciest Chocolate At The Fancy Food Show!

Ask any one of the 24,000 decision makers and chocolate buyers why they will be attending the 54th Summer Fancy Food Show June 29-July 1, 2008 at the Jacob K. Javits Center in New York City and they will tell you that it is the only place where they can see and taste more than 180,000 specialty foods to consider for their specialty food, wine, gift and department stores, supermarkets, restaurants, mail-order and other related businesses. At this year's show there will be over 2,300 exhibitors from around the world showing off the new, familiar and unusual gourmet foods.

Of course, the real star of this year's show is Choclatique… chocolates out of the box! Located in the Savor California Exhibit Booth #480, show attendees will be able to taste a sampling from the best of Choclatique, along with a few new indulgences. Choclatique is the award-winning chocolate for fun-loving chocolate lovers. Choclatique is Nirvana, the Holy Grail and Disneyland melted into one luscious sensory experience. It's the oasis in the oft-bland land of commercial chocolate-making. That's what inspired founders Ed Engoron and Joan Vieweger to set out on a very personal journey to create beautifully seductive, hand-crafted chocolates to tempt the lips, thrill the palate and tickle the tummy!

Choclatique At A Glance

The Choclatique line of hand-made, hand-decorated and hand-packed chocolates can be defined by one delicious expression: flavor thrills. Following time-honored traditions of French chocolate making, the Choclatique artisans continually discover innovative ways to create delightful and beautiful chocolates. In particular, they are known for Authentically American flavors-Boston Cream Pie, Cup O' Joe, Jelly Doughnut, Root Beer Float and Hot Fudge Sundae, to name just a few. The beautifully tempered chocolates are generously filled with premium nuts, luscious caramels, chewy nougats, and creamy ganache, and a few are just wonderful, solid chocolate-Dark, Milk, White and Azteca!

Choclatique Shows Off-What's New and What's Hot

Selected confections for tasting at this year's show include Root Beer Float, Champagne Truffle, Burnt Caramel, Peppermint Heart and Amaretto Latte. Choclatique will also be introducing, their new line of bars-artfully designed Tablets (100 g) and Tapestries (500 g). The flavor list includes Single-Origin 65% Cacao chocolates from Peru, Ecuador, Venezuela, Colombia and Madagascar. Other featured bars are made from Vintage Hawaiian cacao in both milk and dark chocolate, and a variety of selections heavy with inclusions and decorated with beautiful swirls.

The company will also show its Choclatique Q-91-super-dark, bitter sweet chocolate made from exotic cacao beans that are fermented, dried and roasted to their exacting standards. It is a unique and complex blend of many different premium beans from each of the 3 major world cacao growing regions-Central and South America, Africa and Asia. Q-91 is rich in flavor and smooth in texture with light fruit undertones. It is very distinctive-never sharp or bitter.
