Chocolate is fascinating, and developing chocolate products is an incredibly exciting, creative and yet complex process. At Confiserie Heidel, this involves many employees, mainly chocolate experts (chocolatiers), production specialists and buyers, but also product and graphic designers, who create Heidel’s unique packaging ideas and eye-catching product designs.

This white-grey discolouration is called “fat bloom” and is caused by the cocoa butter escaping from the cocoa mass. This happens when chocolate is kept too warm for a long time. If the chocolate is exposed to significantly higher temperatures, this kind of bloom can develop rapidly. The fat crystallisation does not affect the taste, however. It only affects the chocolate’s appearance. We check the chocolate and store it properly until it leaves our factory. Our customers, mainly food retailers, are then responsible for storing the chocolate appropriately.
At present, we don’t have our own online shop. However, you can purchase many of our products via marketplaces such asamazon.deorworldofsweets.de.
