handcrafted chocolate experience

chocolatier mirams is a contemporary artisan chocolatier focused on using the best ingredients available.

chris sources the best blends of couverture available and blends them with the best produce he can find, as local as possible and organic if available. the cacao for this chocolate is grown under sustainable conditions following ethical methods by skilled farmers. it is then skilfully roasted and turned into premium couverture by french chocolate producers. the couverture is then heated to ensure all the cocoa butter crystals are melted before being carefully moved between two temperatures. the movement of crystals between these two temperatures ensures that the beta crystals are stabilised which provides the chocolate with a shine and crisp snap.
