Our family has a strong connection to Germany because my uncle lives there, and my godparents lived there. So anytime they visited Indonesia to visit our family, they gifted the children with chocolate bars and stuffed animal. While it was exciting to see the family, I really looked forward to the chocolate treats the most. =)

When I was growing up in Indonesia, my mom had a growing home-based bakery business. One of our family’s favorites are her chocolate raspberry cake.  Due to the more European flavor combination, I figured my mom learned about this cake when she lived in Germany. I can see this cake served during their Kaffee und Kuchen (Coffee and Cake), the German’s version of teatime. 

FLAVOR: Calling out for all the sour candy lovers out there. The yuzu juice helps round off the sourness of the raspberries. 

INGREDIENTS: Dark chocolate (cacao beans, pure cane sugar, cocoa butter, sunflower lecithin, and vanilla beans), raspberry, yuzu, sugar, glucose.

ALLERGENS: None 

The first Sea Salt Caramel was made in 1960 by a French Chocolatier, Henry Le Roux. After taking a class in Switzerland, he planned to open his own shop in Brittany.  He wanted to highlight the regional ingredient of salted butter. And this is how the sea salt caramel was born. 

FLAVOR: This bonbon is filled with a soft sea salt caramel. 

INGREDIENTS: Dark Chocolate (cacao beans, pure cane sugar, cocoa butter, sunflower lecithin, and vanilla beans), Caramel (Sugar, condensed milk,  heavy whipping cream, butter, and glucose).
