Chocolate, kumquat, sponge cake, meringue - Restaurant Moer

Recipes

At Restaurant MOER (part of Conscious Hotels) they cook exclusively with pure, organic produce. Staying with the basics, that's important. And of course, we completely agree with that! The reason they love working with Chocolatemakers chocolate at MOER is because it uses cacao varieties that give a beautiful, rich flavor.

Here is one of their delicious desserts with our chocolate.
