Auro Chocolate Takes Home the Gold and 9 Other Awards

“Auro Chocolate Products impressed more than 100 expert judges who make up the panel. This year’s board of judges include leading chocolatiers and some of the UK’s most prominent food writers and bloggers.

The recognition given to Philippine chocolates over the years shows that Philippine chocolates are indeed world class, said Ambassador Antonio M. Lagdameo.

Over a thousand entries from close to 50 countries were marked for appearance, depth of aroma and flavor, length, and complexity over a rigorous 25 session judging process stretching for 12 weeks.

Purity and sustainability of ingredients remain paramount considerations for the Academy, said Marie-Pierre Moine, board member and awards ambassador.

The Academy of Chocolate awards was launched in 2005 and is considered the Oscar Awards for chocolates.”
