The European Selection

Three origins,
selected for Europe.

Since 1929, Chocolates El Rey has been the guardian of Venezuelan cacao excellence. For the European market we offer three references drawn from two of our finest origins: a dark chocolate of exceptional depth, a balanced single-origin 70%, and a white chocolate built on pure Venezuelan cocoa butter. All three are available for professional supply across the European Union.
