FoodChocolatiers

Daniel Le Chocolat Belge

Hailing from 10 generations of cocoa producers, Sue DeGrandis knows her chocolate from bean to bar. She grew up on a St. Lucian cocoa plantation (her 88-year-old mother still runs it) and graduated from the culinary program at Humber College in 1972; this lifelong experience shows in her expert advice. For example, the ginger-nutmeg-cinnamon truffle pairs well with a glass of gewürztraminer; a dry merlot calls for simple bittersweet. The shop’s 53 flavours of chocolates include ancho pepper, sea-salted caramel and lemon grass–curry. All pieces are made from European-style Callebaut—no hydrogenated palm oil here, only pure cocoa butter.
