Welcome to a new year of inspiration! In 2025, our monthly flavour idea will continue to focus on ideas around Flavour Harmony. Each month we will take you on an inspiring journey through flavours that strengthen, intensify or complement each other into a perfect pairing. It's all about harmony between such flavours, together creating a rich and layered taste experience.
In January we turn our attention to a classic, but always surprising combination: chocolate and biscuit. This refined pairing brings together the best of both worlds: the creamy, full and sometimes slightly bitter notes of chocolate with the sweet, vanilla and baked accents of a biscuit.
The result? A taste experience that prompts nostalgia, but also offers plenty of room for new innovations.

The proven versatility of this flavour pairing makes it a favourite in both classic and innovative products. They simply just work together perfectly!
Our suggestion: creamy custard with dark chocolate chips
To demonstrate to you the possibilities of the chocolate and biscuit taste, we present you an irresistible demo: a silky, creamy custard enriched with pieces of dark chocolate. The slightly bitter notes of the chocolate form a tasty contrast with the mild and sweet custard base, resulting in a luxurious delicacy.
