At Cacao Barry, they understand that your company and your creations are unique. This is the reason they created the Or Noir concept. They want to help you differentiate your business by helping you create a unique chocolate in your own style.
Or Noir’s research and development team have analysed many different cocoa pastes and chocolates to find out their properties and understand their aromatic profiles. With Or Noir’s patented method of analysis, you will be the architect of your chocolate recipe.
In addition to the creation of your own chocolate, the Or Noir concept that Cacao Barry offers also provides you with the communication tools to strengthen your brand image and explain your strategy to your customers.
“The dream of every pastry chef! For me it was fascinating to have the chance to taste, identify and select the different bean origins to see which one would make the chocolate I wanted. It was like looking for the perfect jewel in the mines of King Solomon”
Jordi Roca – Celler de Can Roca (Spain) *** Michelin
