Bisbee Gal Posted July 12, 2021 Report Share Posted July 12, 2021 A year or two ago Rony handed off his biz to Eden Chocolates; he taught them his recipes and they produced the same bars (packaging identical other than name on tag). About 4 or 5 months ago these same bars were again being sold under Rony's old label. But for the past 2 months I haven't seen them at El Granero where I have bought weekly since 2017. When I asked their staff about these chocolates they said that Rony had moved back to Belgium (please say it ain't so!). fyi, I sent him a PM in June but didn't get a response. Has anyone seen either Rony's or Eden's chocolates in the past month or two---if so, where? Gracias in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First of all, thank you for having bought my chocolate, for all these years ( to you, and everybody else ) ! Yes, I moved back to Belgium, almost 2 months ago, but in meanwhile, there is a lady, called Elena, doing the chocolate. By now, she should have them back at El Granero ( same style of chocolate ) in Ajijic. A big hug to you all. Rony 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bisbee Gal Posted July 14, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2021 @Rony Thanks for the update and wishing you the best Belgium has to offer! Ps, I was at El Granero on Monday but none of "your" chocolates there. I will keep checking for Elena's. Dedos cruzados they will be there soon 🤞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rony Posted July 14, 2021 Report Share Posted July 14, 2021 Good to know. Elena might still be doing some testing ( tempering chocolate is a tricky thing and takes time to learn ). Adriana ( from El Granero ) might know more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lakeside7 Posted July 14, 2021 Report Share Posted July 14, 2021 Best wishes for your new adventure, but I think you have chosen a tough market to sell chocolates, last I visited Belgium there was a chocolate shop on every corner and the waffles are the best drizzled with hot chocolate hmmm 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
