Since the beginning of March, the collections of Grands Crus chocolates as well as the Easter creations of Edwart Chocolatier have been set up at the Gourmet Store in Galeries Lafayette.
Edwart Chocolatier, is above all the story of a chocolate lover since childhood. After having explored diverse and varied backgrounds during his career – jewellery, art, tattooing, design, psychology, perfumery… - Edwin Yansane takes the plunge and opens his own chocolate factory. We are then in 2014 and this is the beginning of a great adventure!
Inspired by his walks in the streets of Paris, he then offers creations made from Grand Cru cocoas, exclusively. Coming from a specific geographical region (and sometimes even from a single plantation!) they each have a unique character. That of Venezuela displays a delicately fruity and slightly floral taste when that of Dominican Republic is all in roundness with its notes of blackcurrant bud. That of Papua New Guinea, meanwhile, contains flavors of hay and smoked earth…
Between freedom, audacity and creativity, the talented chef thinks of each piece as a blend of aromatic notes. Rare spices, dried fruits, fresh plants, seeds and other exotic berries...Making it a point of honor to make each creation by Edwart singular, he associates his chocolate with these unconventional ingredients, like a nose working on the notes of an exceptional perfume. The result ? Local chocolates, with marked tastes but always balanced, elegant and sequenced. The promise ? A delicious discovery with every bite!
Through this blend of unique aromatic notes, Edwart Chocolatier is reinventing and completely revolutionizing chocolate tasting.
