I have been eating/drinking at the amazing Max Brenner for a few years now. This is the best chocolate I have ever eaten and I have eaten a lot being a typical chocolate addict. Every time I come to Israel, I am lucky enough to treat myself at least once to this delicious moment! I can't do more than once as my hips and thighs will buldge to crazy sizes. Anyway after years of wondering, I did some reseach on this delicious company:
I found this out about Max Brenner:
Max Brenner was established in Israel in 1996 and his main idea was to design a new chocolate culture. Through his unique product line, you will become familiar for the first time, with the flavours and aromas of cocoa beans from different origins. You will experience many aspects of the hot chocolate drinks and discover traditional as well as modern innovative utensils designed for the hot chocolate ceremony. You will also enjoy traditional chocolate candy recipes as well as modern ones, mixed with lavender flowers, cardamom and black pepper. Max has developed new ways to consume chocolate. The "Suckao" is a special cup with a metal straw and candle underneath that was designed for preparing and drinking thick hot chocolate with a smooth creamy texture.
Today, Max Brenner has 10 stores in Israel and distributes his products to prestigious hotels and gourmet stores around the world including Dean and Deluca and Felissimo in New York, British Airways, Harrods in London, not to mention selected David Jones stores around Australia.
