Amedei Chocolate |
|
Amedei is an Italian chocolate producing company in Pontedera in Tuscany.
It was established in 1990 by brother-and-sister Alessio and Cecilia Tessieri, both of whom had no prior experience of
making chocolate.

Their company mission was to create the best quality chocolate in the world and insure fair conditions for their farmers.
Searching for supreme sources in Ecuador, the Caribbean and elsewhere, in 2000 they found land in Venezuela with an impressive
200,000 Criollo trees, and bought exclusive rights to these Criollo beans, often dubbed "food of the gods".
Only 3,000 kg of these beans are produced annually, used in Amedei's Porcelana chocolate bar which sells at $12 for a 100-gram bar.
However, although expensive, the demand for such quality is always high. |
