Belgique Truffle Gateau

Belgique Truffle Gateau

In 1986, James Keys and Linda Bartlett founded the chocolate company Belgique in their kitchen in California. Their goal was to create a chocolate confection that was so rich and decadent that no other baked dessert on the market could compare. And that meant using the finest chocolate in the world - Belgian chocolate. After months of experimentation, James and Linda succeeded in developing a confection that they named a Truffle Gateau.

A Truffle Gateau is a unique American-made confection baked with delicious 100% pure Belgian dark and milk chocolate. We use the finest natural ingredients including creamery butter, farm fresh eggs, pure vanilla extract, pure cane sugar, flour and fresh nuts. Combined with the best chocolate in the world, and mixed with American ingenuity, they definitely came up with a winner, winning "Best of Show" at the Califonia State Fair for confections, recognized at the International Fancy Food Show for best new chocolate confection, and with rave reviews in Chocolatier Magazine. Previously sold exclusively in major high-end department stores such as Neiman-Marcus and Nordstrom nationwide, we now offer our gourmet confections to you online and delivered fresh to your home or business.

did you know
A 2005 study based at Tufts University in Medford, MA found that dark chocolate actually helps to lower blood pressure. In a controlled experiment comparing 20 different people, researchers found that dark chocolate was a significant factor in lowering blood pressure, while white chocolate was not. The key ingredient thought to cause this phenomenon is flavonoids.

Flavonoids, also found in wine are types of pigments that are water-soluble and created by plants of many varieties. There are thousands of different flavanoids. Plants use flavonoids in the process of photosynthesis.

How the human body actually uses and/or processes flavonoids is still not determined but they have been linked to good health in many areas - particularly blood circulation.

If you are a science buff, then you'll be interested to know that flavonoids are polyphenolic compounds containing 15 carbon atoms, two benzene rings joined by a linear three carbon chain. If you're just an average, everyday person with a sweet tooth, then you'll be interested to know that good things are contained in a single bite of dark chocolate. So please, put down the chemistry book and enjoy some today!
