Loraschi supplies handcrafted chocolate confections to world class hotels, fine dining restaurants, high end catering companies and other luxury venues across throughout the United States and produces approximately 7 tons of chocolates and a ton of macarons every year. Pretty inspired for a guy who came to America in 1999 and didn't know a word of English! I had the pleasure of meeting Chef Loraschi 2 years ago when I went to the Shoppes at Susquehanna Marketplace to support Plum Bottom, one of our small business partners, who was part of the Chocolate Walk they were hosting. Loraschi was there sampling and offering his chocolate works of art for purchase for the holidays. ( Or in my case, for personal consumption )

Every chocolate in his signature 16 piece assorted box has such a distinctive flavor. The delicate coating perfectly allows the decadent flavor shine through. I first sampled and fell in love with the 'Dark' which includes dark rum and macerated raisins.
