To capture the seductive essence of Dragees, slowly let
the gentle petals of sugar melt away...
Dragees ( pronounced dra-zhay) are pastilles of fine
chocolate or dry fruits delicately covered with a sugar shell. Also
known as Jordan almonds, confetti or sugared chocolates, Dragees are
one of the oldest sweets in Europe.
The making of a Dragee is a very slow, meticulous
process requiring constant attention. Each chocolate is layered with
liquefied sugar for several days. While today’s Dragees are partially
produced with machines that recall the gentle motion of hand
manufacture, the process will always require the involvement of
skillful artisans.
Chocolate Dragees are made with our famous Belgian
chocolate and come in a wide range of more than fifty colors with a
choice of three finishes: Mat, Shiny or Pearly.
Sucre Chine Dragees are imported with great care by air
directly from Belgian’s finest manufacturer. |
