MUMBAI: : Fabelle Exquisite Chocolates, the home-grown luxury chocolate brand from ITC Ltd, acclaimed for creating unparalled chocolate experiences in the country has taken the Indian luxury chocolate market to newer and greater heights. Fabelle has revealed its most expensive chocolate listed under GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS with the launch of its limited edition Fabelle Trinity - Truffles Extraordinaire.
The chocolate was unveiled at a high octane event in ITC Grand Central Mumbai, in the presence of the Legendary, Michelin Star Chef Philippe Conticini - who is credited for numerous innovations over the last three decades and is the co-curator of Fabelle’s Trinity - Truffles Extraordinaire. This range brings alive the cycle of life represented by the Creator, Nurturer and Destroyer in a box of unique handcrafted truffles, each representing a concept.
The limited edition offering will be encased in a unique, hand-made wooden box, each containing 15 truffles, each weighing approximately 15 gms. The made-to-order box will be available at an indulgent price of £1093 or ₹1, 00,000 (inclusive of taxes)
The Trinity - Truffles Extraordinaire range that represents the Creator, Nurturer and Destroyer is co-curated by Chef Philippe Conticini and Fabelle’s Master Chocolatiers using some of the rarest ingredients and finest single origin cacaos in the world. Consumers and chocolate connoisseurs in India will experience Fabelle’s signature multi-sensorial and multi- textural experience through this trio of truffles, each of which are an expression of a hero ingredient representing the cycle of life. Like the coconut which symbolizes the beginning in Creator, the rare Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee in Nurturer or the Grand Cru dark chocolate in Destroyer, each master piece unfolds a mystical story for the Indian consumers to experience.
Expressing his delight on setting higher benchmarks for the Indian luxury chocolate market, ITC Limited Chief Operating Officer - Chocolates, Confectionary, Coffee and New Categories - Food Division Anuj Rustagi said “ We at Fabelle are extremely happy for setting new benchmarks not just in the Indian luxury chocolate market but also now in the world with achieving the GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS feat.
