When master chocolatier Alessio Tessieri recently asked King's to market his Amedei chocolate, they couldn't refuse. Amedei is the finest and most expensive chocolate in the world. Most of the cocoa beans come from Venezuela: the Porcelana and Chuao are the world's most exclusive Beans. Venezuela and Madagascar grow more than 85% of the world's Criollo, the ancient cocoa bean of the Maya. Trinidad, Ecuador, Jamaica and Grenada produce a very high quality Trinitario which is used exclusively by Amedei. Set up fifteen years ago by Alessio and sister Cecilia (who devises the recipes for the chocolate), Amedei is based in Pontedera in the Pisa area of Italy. Company ethics ensure that the growers of the beans always receive the best price for their crop. Amedei is the world's only manufacturer of the exquisite Chuao couverture, which is adored by chocolate afficianados worldwide. Many pastry chefs in London's leading hotels and restaurants use Chuao couverture in their chocolate creations and desserts. Amedei also produce a fabulous range of Truffles, Pralines, Napolitans and chocolate bars for the private individual customer. Anyone who appreciates fine chocolate will adore Amedei. King's are the sole distributors of Amedei chocolate in the UK. 6 Mill Farm Business Park, Millfield Road, Hanworth, Middlesex TW4 5PY Tel: 020 8894 1111 Fax: 020 8894 3338 Email: sales@kingsfinefood.co.uk
