K+M-Chocolates

Michelin-starred Chef Thomas Keller and legendary Italian olive oil producer Armando Manni have teamed up with a vision to develop the world’s highest quality chocolate.

Manni led the research behind K+M, when he and Chef Keller again worked with the University of Florence to test a chocolate that used MANNI oil in place of cocoa butter. The goal was to create a chocolate production methodology that retains the naturally occurring antioxidants of the cocoa beans, unlike traditional chocolate-making processes, which can cause the loss of up to 60-80 percent.
