Venchi
Below are featured products from our most popular chocolate categories. Thank you for shopping at Chocolate.com.
Venchi
This small Italian company was originally founded by its namesake, Silvano Venchi in 1878, in Via degli Artisti in Turin. The chocolatier's notoriety came from a filling still employed today: the famous nougatine, a mix of ground and candied hazelnuts covered in chocolate. The modern era of Venchi follows the same traditional recipes of the chocolatiers who came before, much of their collection is still handmade, and Venchi continues to adhere to the same strict standards of quality and freshness. A real Italian chocolate legacy is tasted in each bite.

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!
