Neuhaus has been around for over 150 years and
started in 1857 when Jean Neuhaus who was an owner of a bustling pharmacy in
Brussels lays down the foundations for the esteemed reputation of Neuhaus. His
grandson, Jean Nauhaus Jr. is the mind behind the Belgian praline and his wife
is the inventor of the luxury ballotin. I was recently sent The Neuhaus History
Collection The gift box contains 28 delicious masterpieces and a brochure
explaining the rich history of Neuhaus, presented in an elegant luxury shopping
bag.
Let me tell
you about the chocolates which started in 1857 with Galerie which has praline
in a dark chocolate and a range of flavours based on the delicate ganache with
caramel finished with a fine note of Fleur de Sel from Guerande on a thin layer
of praline. 1912 brought the Jean this exceptional prailine has a rich flavor
thanks to the ganache of 64% dark chocolate made with cocoa from Peru.1915
Louise this praline has a tender character with its delicious ganache made from
soft milk chocolate from Java. 1942 Suzanne is a melodic fusion of the
intensely dark ganache with fresh raspberries on a layer of refined filing of
praline.
1958 Caprice is a nougatine shell filled with
vanilla from Madagascar covered with an intensely dark chocolate. Tentation is
filled with a characteristic ganache of coffee made from Arabica beans covered
in a soft milk chocolate. 1959 Albert is a luxurious combination of flavours
combining dark chocolate a filling of hazelnut praline and a carmelised
hazelnut. 1970 Cornet Dore is a graceful golden cone filled with delicious
gianduja a famous Italian blend of hazelnuts and chocolate with a smooth,
velvety texture making the praline melt in your mouth. 1990 Manon Noir is a
dark chocolate filled with a smooth chocolate mousse. Manon Lait is a milk
chocolate combing light butter cream, praline and caramelized pieces of
hazelnut.
Manon ChocoVanille is white chocolate surrounded in butter cream with
vanilla from Madagascar and is finished with a pecan nut. 2010 Plaisir is one
of the three latest irresistible and combines a crispy nougatine shell with a
ganache based on roasted hazelnuts in a coat of milk chocolate. 2012 Divine
combines the divine flavours of soft caramel and pieces of hazelnut. 2014
Cornet Crunchy is a soft and smooth gianduja enriched with crispy pieces of
hazelnut.
My Opinion: When you open the box the smell of
chocolate hits you like a ton of bricks and they are all very delicious and you
can taste the quality chocolate used to make them and I like them all. The ones
with the nougatine makes it a little chewy which I enjoyed very much.
