Artisanal, 100% natural and based on cocoa butter sourced from cocoa processing neighbours.

Chocolate factory De Euforij brought the craft of chocolate making back to the Zaan region.

With people, machines and ingredients from the region, they work on real Zaanse chocolate. All based on old, proven recipes; when cocoa was still the most important ingredient for chocolate.
