To differentiate yourself
From our very first meeting to the moment your chocolate makes its debut, we support you through every stage of the process so that, together, we can create a chocolate after your own heart.
Create your custom chocolate with Valrhona Lab
Valrhona Lab is an online service that lets you easily create your own signature flavors.
Express your unique taste by putting together Compoz bases to shape your very own chocolate identity.
Save your recipes in your My Recipes area, and go back any time to tweak them, print labels and data sheets, or generate production sheets.
Your bespoke chocolate
To make your bespoke recipe, we first look to identify your future chocolate’s technical and flavour characteristics. Once we have pinpointed your key markers, we select cocoa terroirs whose singular aromatic profile offers up a vast range of creative possibilities.
Create the perfect blend
But we don’t just blend the best ingredients (cocoa beans, sugars, spices...) – we work to find an optimal balance of each one so that it adapts to all your creative wishes as soon as you have it. We define the perfect recipe by trying out a variety of prototypes, and you will be able to both taste it and road test its application to confirm it’s just right for you. We can also help you to create your praliné or chocolate bonbons.
Add an extra dimension to your creations
Your Mold
We give you access to a real hub of expert knowledge around designing and developing molds for chocolates and pastries. From bars to bonbons, Yule logs and chocolates molded for Christmas or the year’s other big events, express your personality in three dimensions.

Our clients talk about it
SIMON ATTRIDGE, Executive Pastry Chef Hôtel Gleneagles, Scotland
I feel that, as a young chef, it is an incredible idea to work with a company like yours to make a signature chocolate. The experience I gained from the ideas phase right through to design and development was a great learning opportunity for us all. Everyone from the chefs to the reception staff showed an interest, and this opened up lots of opportunities. The whole process gives us a real identity and contributes to the company’s image.
