Giving or treating yourself to quality dark chocolate is a way to combine indulgence with nutritional benefits. We invite you to discover all the subtleties of dark chocolate and its benefits through a gustatory and sensory journey.
Naturally present benefits
Thanks to its virtues, dark chocolate is an opportunity to indulge without guilt. It is a food rich in flavonoids, antioxidants that help combat oxidative stress, bad cholesterol, and hypertension. Dark chocolate also contains essential minerals for the body: magnesium, iron, copper, and zinc. Its moderate consumption promotes the production of serotonin (the happiness hormone) and dopamine (the pleasure molecule). Dark chocolate thus provides a sense of well-being. It is a natural stimulant that improves concentration and helps reduce fatigue.
Dark chocolate, the purest expression of cocoa
Dark chocolate is the most authentic form of cocoa. A square of a bar with over 70%, a melting bite: just a few grams of dark chocolate are enough to reveal a deep aromatic intensity. The fruity, floral, and lightly toasted notes unfold with subtlety. Offering you the perfect balance between sweetness and bitterness: this is the expertise of Maison Pierre Marcolini. The Malline Grands Crus is the ideal box of dark chocolates to enjoy this authentic sensory experience. Like all our creations, these fine chocolates are the result of a lengthy process of transforming protein-rich cocoa beans. These are carefully selected, then roasted, to craft a refined cocoa butter and cocoa powder.
Tasting fine artisanal dark chocolates is synonymous with moments of pleasure. Succumb to the delights of the Cube 7 Grands Crus Tabletsand the Malline Saveurs du Monde. These two boxes are an opportunity to discover the Maison’s Bean-to-bar expertise, with cocoa beans selected from around the world. The low sugar content reflects a commitment to the pure taste of cocoa. It is the perfect balance between the benefits of dark chocolate and gustatory pleasure! Tasting moments, especially in the evening, become a soothing sensory journey: perfect pauses to unwind before sleep.
Our dark chocolate creations are emblematic of the Maison’s exacting standards and style. This is expressed in all its chocolate bars and gift boxes. Bite into, for example, the Ecuador bar and discover the precision of our recipes and the respect for the ingredient. Our artisans are committed to showcasing very special cocoa beans: the Nacional Arriba variety, with 83% cocoa. Grown in the province of Los Rios, it is a dark violet bean found only in Ecuador. Thanks to their mastery of the roasting process, our artisans know how to highlight the bold character of this unique cocoa bean. They bring it to you in a grand cru dark chocolate bar with coffee notes, slightly tart on the finish.
The benefits of dark chocolate lie as much in gustatory pleasure as in nutritional value. To vary the pleasures, we also invite you to discover our milk chocolate creations.
