Joining the Belvedere
Team...
There will always be a demand for a quality
product and that's no different when it comes to chocolate. The
benefits of chocolate have frequently been underlined in the
media. In other words, when people want to treat themselves and
their loved ones, friends, ... chocolate makes the best option.
Belvedere Belgian Style Chocolates®:
our pralines
& truffles have been selected multiple times as the best of
the best. Imagine your shop where customers fill their own box
from a stylish display case filled with a selection of more than
70 different ones to choose from... a truly unique shopping
experience in the classy, old-fashioned European setting of a
Belvedere Belgian Chocolate Shop®.
Unlike
other chocolatiers, we offer pralines & truffles in 6
different types of chocolate plus a whole range of chocolate
figurines for all your holidays, all made with the same high
quality Belgian chocolate. You won't have to worry about
variety, new ideas find their way constantly to our already
large assortment of molds.
A superior product
A true Belgian chocolatier, like us, honors
the Belgian tradition of fine and exquisite chocolate making.
Our pralines
and truffles are all natural, without preservatives,
without colorings, without artificial additives, always made
fresh from week to week in a state-of-the-art factory.
When you look closer to the flavors of our fillings, you will
notice that there is a large variety, in contradiction to many
Belgian chocolatiers whose assortment is largely based on the
same base fillings like hazelnut (aka. praliné). Also, our
product is fine-tuned to the taste of the American customer,
thanks to our presence for more than 10 years and most
important, paying attention to the customer's feedback.
Our pralines and truffles made with butter and whipping cream
don't keep for months... like from certain other chocolatiers.
We sincerely hope that you'll understand, by browsing our web
site and looking at the products, how serious and passionate we
are about what we do with chocolate.
Our product is also superior to imported finished goods, which
usually have preservatives and thus a long shelf life because it
takes more than a couple of days till an order is processed,
product is packed, shipped overseas, cleared customs,
transported to a warehouse and finally distributed to a store,
waiting to be sold.
We start production for your order on Monday and the same week,
they are shipped to your shop. It can't get any fresher than
that!
Why does Belvedere's taste so much better
?
Over the years, we have fine-tuned our product line to the US
market and have brought our manufacturing methods up to an
extremely high level resulting in an unseen praline and
truffle assortment.
First, our chocolate is imported from Callebaut Belgium, without
question a trendsetter in the world of chocolate for decades.
Secondly, we are chocolatiers not chemists. Our fillings and
centers are made from scratch, with regular and very basic
ingredients, identical to the ones that are to be found in any
household kitchen: cream, butter, eggs, sugar, etc. We start for
our fruit fillings with real fruit, rather than processed fruit
(like preserves, which have unwanted sweeteners and thickeners),
we brew our own coffee and tea, we roast nuts ourselves, the
first step we take in preparing eggnog is breaking fresh eggs
and separating the yolks rather than buying egg yolks, and by
going through all that trouble, we control the process
in every aspect, resulting in an excellent product.
Our Belgian chocolatier is an expert in creating very
well-balanced fillings, without overwhelming flavors.
Do we need explain more why ours tastes better ?
We don't want you to take our word for it; every person
experiences taste and flavor in a unique way. Convince yourself,
your family and friends by conducting a taste test: compare our
pralines with the ones from competitors, and most of all, don't
forget to check out the ingredient list: in our products, you
won't find anything that is artificial, and surely no
hydrogenated oils or fats. Trans fats are bad for anybody's
health and don't belong in food.
Why team up with Belvedere
?
Our company will be your backbone, not only
because of our
Belgian background, but in many ways.
Beside a wide assortment of pralines and truffles, we offer a
full line of solid and hollow chocolate figurines, seasonal and
year-round items, plus support products for chocolate fountains
and fondues.
Having a full line is to your advantage: you don't need to shop
elsewhere and all the product is made with the same high quality
chocolate and manufacturing standards. The customer will
appreciate that the Easter Eggs are as delicious as the Yule Log
is at their Christmas Eve's dinner.
We also stock packaging items which you can buy in small
quantities from us at prices like you would have with volume
purchases.
If you interested in a deeper level than just retailing, there
is an option in manufacturing products as well. Don't hesitate
to ask for details. It is very eye-catching for the store, when
the customer can have a peek on how things are done.
We will show you how you can extend your
business with personalized products for business gifts, wedding
favors and share our experience to tap into the local market,
like hotels, country clubs, etc.
And to make the circle complete, we have developed additional
products that blend in perfectly with the Belgian character of
the shop like ice cream bonbons and sugar waffles.
