Tasting Notes – Puccini Bomboni

August 18, 2013 by KChie Leave a Comment

How can I go all the way to Amsterdam and not go to the best chocolate shop there? I can’t. Many rave over the expensive yet delicious artisan chocolates of Puccini Bomboni with two branches in the heart of Amsterdam. They are not mistaken.

The store is clean and quite bare with the exception of the mesmerizing spread of chocolates. Service is also clean and by that I mean cold and methodical.

At a cost of 2-3 euros each the handmade “bomboni” is like a gift on it’s own each with its unique shape and texture. I had the dark chocolate caramel truffle, the milk honey, and the hazelnut. Yes, I played it safe, deciding to forego the rhubard, tamarind, thyme flavours as well as the liquor-filled pieces.

Talk about an intense and intimate chocolate moment!
