Délicia® Quadriphonie
4 Variations of Grand Cru Cocoa
Registered trademark ® since 1923.
Created in 1923 to appeal to lovers of dark chocolate, the Délicia is a palet containing 72% cacao. Its shape is unique and its finesse incomparable.
To celebrate this 100th anniversary, we've created the Quadriphonie Delicia, with four exceptional chocolates, including 3 new compositions.
Le Delicia® Original
A blend of cocoas from Ghana & Brazil 72%. It opens with beautiful primary cocoa notes supported by delicate acidity, evolving towards a woody bouquet, then notes of licorice and black tea.
Le Delicia® Birch Sugar
Grand cru of Peruvian cocoa 80%; this chocolate made from Trinitario beans, grown naturally in the San Martin region, reveals spicy notes of cinnamon, badian and Tonka beans, softened by a natural sweetener derived from birch bark.
Le Delicia® Au Lait
Madagascar cocoa 60%; this milk chocolate offers an exceptional chocolate flavor thanks to the Criollo and Trinitario cocoas grown in the Sambirano river valley, renowned for its exceptional flora. Its typical red fruit notes are accompanied by a pleasant acidity.
Le Delicia® Grand Cru
Grand cru de cacao de Colombie 75%. Made from Criollo and Trinitario cocoa grown in the exceptional Guaviare terroir, this chocolate offers notes of milk jam supported by a light orange fragrance.

A Word from Dominique Clerc
Délicias are wonderful chocolates of surprising simplicity and yet the ultimate in sophistication. As far as we are aware, there is no other chocolate like a Délicia. Each Délicia is made by hand, just as they were when Mr Palomas created them. He gave them their unique, extra flat shape so that their very thinness would enhance the taste of the origin cacao in the mouth. Making them requires constant attention. The pleasure of sharing Palomas® treats is passed on from generation to generation, like a well-kept secret. Délicias are no exception to this rule, and our most loyal clients have even gone so far as to rename them "the devil's wafer".

Advice
The extreme thinness of Délicia chocolate palets makes perfect sense as soon as you taste them. The first sensation is the cracking of the chocolate and then, instantly, the melting palet coats the roof of the mouth and the tongue. This really brings out the perception of the aromas and flavours.
Délicias can be enjoyed at any time of the day, paired with coffee, tea or a glass of Madeira or port.
