The Chocolate Experience

For over 20 years Pierre Marcolini, founder of the Maison of the same name, has perfected the art of making chocolate – from bean to bar. Every year he travels across the globe, in search of the rarest cocoa with which to make the finest chocolate.

For this progressive and passionate craftsman, the business of chocolate goes hand in hand with pleasure, sharing, discovery and creativity.

Since childhood, Marcolini has strived to separate a love of food from that “cardinal sin”: greed.

What drives this pursuit of taste?
The desire to offer a unique and tantalising experience.

Profile of a devoted chocolatier

At the of 14 Pierre Marcolini had found his vocation, at 19 he was a patisserie chef in charge of a team of patissiers, at 31 he won the World Patisserie Championship…

With almost 40 prizes to his name, Pierre Marcolini’s obsession with taste has lead from one success to the next.

Like the chocolates that he creates, Pierre Marcolini himself is a sweet blend: a delicate composite of heritages and influences.

Belgian by birth but of Italian heritage, he effortlessly combines northern discipline with southern spontaneity.

From the age of 14, he devoted himself to chocolate with an almost religious zeal. Utterly passionate, the young Marcolini knew it, he could feel it: he would be a chocolatier. No question.
Avant-garde, ahead of the curve, pioneering, innovative… these are just a few labels often pinned to Pierre Marcolini, the fanatical “Chocolate man”.
Determined to revolutionise the role of a chocolatier, he champions cocoa planters and the regions where they work by paying them a fair price. He selects only the highest quality ingredients and insists on an environmentally sustainable and ethical approach to artisanal chocolate production.
In this way, Marcolini assures that his insatiable obsession with taste can go on forever.
