The Secret Chocolatier uses fresh seasonal ingredients from regional farmers to create their unique flavors. There are no extracts or oils used. Everything is processed in a cream steeping method to bring out the peak flavors. As a rule, they have decided that the best can’t be tampered with. The pursuit of longer shelf life, temperature stability, etc., requires the introduction of a lot of science, and that pushes the "natural" out. It’s a difference that you can sense – that you can taste – so The Secret Chocolatier rejects such artificial approaches in favor of pure, all-natural ingredients and processes. They strive to stay as close to the source of all their ingredients as possible. We’re proud to bring you a selection of their classics as well as some seasonal creation...

Michael and Jean-Francois Poncelet say that chocolate runs in the family, handed down by their father, a remarkable chocolatier subscribing to Belgian traditions. In 1989 they gave birth to Dolfin with a mission to draw on the original sources of chocolate, capturing it’s strengths and authenticity. Dolfin chocolates are a far cry from flavored creams - carefully selected natural ingredients are mixed directly with grand cru and secret blends of chocolate beans. You can find these extraordinary gems in prestigious emporiums - Selfridges in London, La Grande Epicerie in Paris, the KDW in Berlin and the Sony Plaza in Tokyo. Our favorites are the Pastiche collection – rare chocolate combined with cocoa, Earl Grey tea, coffee, nougatine, pink peppercorn, ginger and much more.
