“12 Quilates” Chocolates – Gourmet Edition, Oro La Senda
Born in Castilla-La Mancha, this unique creation brings together the elegance of the finest Belgian chocolate with the essence of organic EVOO from Oro La Senda Almazara. The “12 Quilates” chocolates represent the perfect balance between tradition, innovation and fine dining.
Artisan-made by Emily Chocolate Art, each chocolate is molded with intensely aromatic dark Belgian chocolate and hand-finished with delicate golden highlights applied with an airbrush. A presentation that turns each piece into a small edible jewel.
Inside, you will find a surprising combination:
- Organic EVOO jam with spirulina, fresh and vegetal.
- Manchego cheese cream ganache and white chocolate, smooth, aromatic and slightly salty.
Every bite offers a harmonious, elegant and lingering play of contrasts, designed for those seeking luxury and distinction in every detail.
The box includes 12 chocolates presented as true collectible gourmet pieces.
