Our Story
Michel Cluizel, a French Chocolate manufacturer since 1948. For three generations, the Cluizel family has evolved amidst the rich aromas of French chocolate. With the help from their skilled confectioners, and chocolate makers, the family carries on with their tradition, where everything started: in Damville, Normandy.ย
Chocolate maker,ย Cluizel, developed a direct, sustainable relation with cocoa plantersย for a genuine, natural taste.ย This is what the self demanding French chocolaterie always strives for. To achieve this, cocoa beans are fermented according to a skillfully controlled technique, at the planter's premises.ย It's then meticulously packed,ย maintaining freshness, and shipped to theย Cluizel manufacturing facility inย Damville, Normandy. There, the slow roastingย process of transforming beans into exquisite French chocolate begins, including itsย 100% natural decorations which are often handmade.
