Hazelnut Praline Milk 55%

Bonnat Chocolat Lait au Praline Noisettes – Milk Chocolate with Hazelnut Nougat

The Bonnat Chocolat Lait au Praline Noisettes is a milk chocolate with hazelnut nougat with a 55% cocoa content. The 100g chocolate bar is produced by Chocolat Bonnat, located in Voiron, France, since 1884.

The high proportion of 30% hazelnut nougat from roasted hazelnuts makes this chocolate bar – Chocolat Lait au Praline Noisettes – so exceptionally creamy and nutty. Due to its silkiness, it doesn't have the usual Bonnat "snap." Its texture is slightly firmer than nougat and a little softer than other Bonnat milk chocolates. Its full-bodied nutty aroma lingers on the palate.

Caution: this chocolate contains traces of nuts!

The Bonnat Flavor Universe

The Bonnat company was founded in 1884 and is still operating today, in its 4th generation, at the old address in Voiron in the Isère Valley. They personally import the cocoa beans, which are carefully selected from 8 different growing regions. Stephane Bonnat travels all over the world for this, buying directly from small plantations or cocoa farmers. The already fermented beans are first gently roasted and then conched (i.e., "kneaded thoroughly") in a process lasting about 20 hours. From the rather dry beans, a thick liquid mass is thus created by the release of cocoa butter. In industrial production, cocoa varieties from various growing regions are then mixed until the desired taste is achieved. Bonnat refrains from precisely that.

Like no other, he manages to bring out and let you taste the typical characteristics of each cocoa bean from its respective growing region and even the peculiarities of the vintage (influenced by the weather). Similar to a good wine, the chocolate thus shows its origin, its terroir. Bonnat was the first to give their chocolates technical terms from the world of fine wines, such as Origin or Grand Cru.

For the production of chocolate, Chocolat Bonnat uses only cocoa, cocoa butter, and sugar. Foreign substances and emulsifiers play no role in the Bonnat family's production process, in contrast to many "major" brands. Which region is your favorite?
