Let customers speak for us
Can't complain with the quality, molds are very well built and durable. Definitely a worthy investment.
Lovely French flour varieties. Great prices for flour we would not normally get out here on the prairies. Fantastic service and outstanding people
Best buying experience ever
I made single-origin bean-to-bar chocolate with these beans following the method from Chocolate Alchemy. The recipe was for a 70% dark chocolate (63% cacao, 7% cacao butter, 30% cane sugar by weight), run for 36 hours in the melanger. The resulting chocolate is lovely, more on the delicate side as you'd expect from a criollo. The chocolate notes come through clean and clear, and there are plenty of nuances that keep the sensory experience interesting. Bitterness and astringency are both subdued; most people say that it tastes like a 40-50% dark. Will buy again!
These molds are amazing, just what I was looking for. The ordering process was easy and the delivery was super fast! I am very impressed with this company and will order more in as needed in the future. Thanks!!
Top notch friendly service. I can highly recommend this business and the owners. Absolutely great to deal with.
Was real happy with the service!
Beans are carefully packaged. They got to us in very short order, which was great because we were out….. Thankyou!
This machine is amazing! I love it. I received my order very quickly too, very impressed with the service. Thank you!
I am extremely satisfied with this machine and with the excellent customer service I received. Also, the shipping was very quick! I will definitely order products again as needed. Thank you very much!!
I was slightly concerned because it was my first time ordering from here. However, my shipment arrived a week before the expected date and was in perfect condition! The flour itself is great and I’ve made some amazing Viennoiseries with it. The dough comes out highly extensible and supple. I do wish the shipping fees were a bit lower as I’d originally planned on buying 2 bags but it was too expensive even with the 50% discount on the second bag. I’m definitely ordering again from them though!.
Everything arrived on time, excellent cocoa butter.
Fast and safe shipping. Quality products. I highly recommend the company.
I’m so happy found this company very good quality products
