Victoire Finaz - Chocologue

Victoire Finaz

Victoire Finaz has made her passion for chocolate her reason for living. The great granddaughter of a chocolate maker, her love of chocolate goes back to her early childhood and lead her to invent a new profession: Chocologue® (Chocologist). 

Her travels, experiences and training, alongside some of the leading names in the field, have nurtured her expertise in cocoa and its subtle aromas, the art of chocolate tasting and sensory analysis. After training in chocolate making at Ferrandi and in sensory analysis at the CIRAD (French Agricultural Research Centre for International Development).

Founder of her own brand of chocolates, Victoire's recipes are the result of a subtle combination of balanced flavours. Created using traditional French artisanal methods and the highest quality raw ingredients, her silky ganaches and crunchy pralines, in an array of colours, take you on a taste discovery. 

Specialising in corporate gifts, Victoire works with businesses and company social activities committees to create personalised boxes of chocolates which are in harmony with their image and creates customised recipes. She also offers a range of workshops in chocology, chocolate and wine pairing, and chocolate and spirits pairing, for companies and individuals, that are fun, interactive and educational.

Today, Victoire shares her cocoa and chocolate expertise, and her mastery of the art of tasting, as a speaker and judge at key chocolate events, and as a consultant and trainer for those involved in the gastronomy sector of today and the future.

"My passion for chocolate is a driving force in discovering this food that is savored like a fine wine."
