Discovering a Summer Sensation with Maison Cacao

Maison Cacao, renowned for its aromatic chocolate creations, has launched its latest summer masterpiece: the Travel Pâté de Fruit. This exciting new confectionery encapsulates the most delicious moments of freshly encountered fruits discovered during travels across the country. From the historical town of Kamakura, where the brand was founded by Shingo Ishihara, the Travel Pâté de Fruit invites chocolate lovers on a journey that celebrates the vivid colors and flavors of seasonal fruits.

A Visual and Taste Experience

Molding the essence of fruits, these beautiful cube-shaped treats often resemble real fruits, making it difficult to tell them apart at first glance. Maison Cacao’s mission is not just about processing fruit but ensuring that every bite brings the pure, fresh essence of the fruit itself.

With varieties like citrus, grapes, peaches, kiwis, and tropical fruits, the brand embarks on a nationwide journey to meet fruit producers. Engaging with local cultures and climates, they carefully select the fruits that shine most brightly during the summer season. Each piece of this special confection captures the peak aroma, acidity, juiciness, and freshness of the fruit at its zenith, making it a unique summer delight.

An Exquisite Experience of Biting into Fruit

The culminating experience Maison Cacao aims to deliver is akin to taking a bite out of a fresh fruit. As soon as the Pâté de Fruit enters the mouth, the burst of fruit juice captivates the taste buds. Each fruit variety showcases distinct aromas, flavors, and aftertastes, complemented by a delicate melt-in-your-mouth texture.

Crafted without unnecessary embellishments, each piece allows the individual character of the fruit to shine through. When served chilled, the pieces provide a refreshing hint, while at room temperature, the aromas become amplified, offering a perfect accompaniment for summer gifts such as seasonal presents and souvenirs during family reunions.

The Cocoa Journey: A Fruit in Its Own Right

Maison Cacao’s journey began with the discovery of cocoa fruit in Colombia, which inspired the creation of a chocolate brand deeply rooted in meaningful experiences. The brand was drawn by the vibrant aromas and juiciness reminiscent of lychee and tropical fruits. This realization marked the inception of an innovative approach to chocolate making - positioning cocoa as another type of fruit.

This passion for fresh produce and the remarkable aromas of fruits led Maison Cacao to create this new summer signature that enriches the journey of fruit exploration.

The Travel Pâté de Fruit is not just a snack; it’s an invitation to experience the vivid palette of summer. This summer, seize the opportunity to enjoy this special masterpiece and treat your loved ones to a delightful experience.
