Chocolate covered from fruit to nuts<\/h2>\n

\"Local\"Confectioner<\/p>\n

Marich Pancrafted Chocolates<\/a>,<\/strong> founded in 1984 by Marinus Van Dam, a Dutch immigrant, and now run by his sons, makes panned chocolates. Panning is a different process from enrobing, which is basically dip and dry. Instead prepared inclusions and liquid chocolate are poured into constantly rotating drums to coat the inclusions evenly and give them a nice shine.<\/p>\n

Marich uses\u00a0Guittard<\/a> couvertures, another long-time family owned local chocolate business. They also source their other ingredients as locally as possible.<\/p>\n

They make a wide variety of covered chocolates: Nuts, caramels, fruits, pretzels, malt balls, mint cream, shortbread, toffee, and more. There are lots of chocolate options too: dark, milk, white, and sugar free.<\/p>\n

Marich doesn\u2019t have a factory store or offer tours anymore. You can buy their full line on their website<\/a>. And you can find their panned chocolates at many local businesses like Berkeley Bowl, Peet\u2019s Coffee, and Michael\u2019s Chocolates<\/a>. They also make panned chocolates for other businesses, so check the label \u2014 you might already be enjoying their chocolates.<\/p>\n
