Just received a little package from my cuz (thanks Teresa!), and from the looks of it, I knew it was something different...and it was.
The Nama Chocolate Champaign Pierre Mignon, rich, velvety smooth melt-in-your mouth texture like no other. Made from the finest premium ingredients, selected chocolates, fresh cream and world class quality liqueurs, the combination releases delicate, subtle, yet rich flavors unique to Royce' Chocolate.
Temperature sensitive, each product is delicately placed in a thermal pouch upon purchase at any Royce' Chocolate outlet to maintain the product quality. Like most Japanese products, the packaging is detailed and elegant, and the product is beautifully presented. Storage temperatures require a constant 10 degrees Celsius or lower, and can only be stored for one month or less.
Soft, rich and creamy, the subtle flavors deliver a distinct, very indulgent mouth feel, and yes, you can't help but close your eyes. And don't let it stay in your hands too long, body temperatures easily melt these delicate bars. A small plastic spoon is provided for easier handling, very cool.
Established in 1983 in Hokkaido, Japan, Royce' Chocolate began with a small, simple operation centered on premium quality chocolate. The use of high grade premium ingredients and techniques proved to be key factors in their success. From Hokkaido, the very first overseas branch was opened in Singapore in 2001, followed by new stores in Hong Kong, Malaysia, Thailand and Taiwan, and in 2008, Royce' Chocolate finally arrived in the Philippines. With six outlets located in premium mall locations, access to these one-of-a-kind products is within easy reach.
Sadly, Royce Chocolate does not ship products to any other location aside from their Asian store outlets due to quality and temperature issues. But hopefully, more worldwide locations will be opened. Hopefully...
Royce' Chocolate is located at The Podium, Ground Floor, Ortigas Center, Pasig City or call 379-3224 for details on other branch locations.

ReplyDeleteHi Berylle, real melt-in-your-mouth goodness, really good stuff!
DeleteOhh man... I LOVE Royce chocolate! Had them for first time when I went to Singapore for a visit. They're sooo good. And you're right, the truffles really were melt in your mouth, what a nice surprise. I actually really like their choc flavoured potato chips too. That was another one of those "surprisingly good" products lol. I love how high quality most Japanese stuff are =)
ReplyDeletehey Winston, Royce chocolate rocks! From the packaging to the melt-in-your mouth chocolate, awesome!
DeleteThis does look like a rich specialty chocolate. Pretty cool gift as far as I am concerned! The days of shipping chocolate are gone now because of the weather here, but things will be available again in September! Enjoy your Royce chocolates!
