For Christmas 2023, legendary Irish chocolatier Lir is launching a stunning new range with delicious flavour combinations and gorgeous, eye-catching packaging. Hand-finished by Lir’s talented chocolatiers in Navan, Co. Meath, the Lir ‘Love Chocolate’ Collection offers a delicious combination of smooth caramel, dark pralines and zesty fruit-filled chocolates.
New flavours in this beautifully balanced collection, include the ‘Blonde Salted Caramel Baton’ a sumptuously rich, Italian blonde chocolate encasing a luscious, caramel centre flavoured with subtle notes of sea salt and Madagascan vanilla. The ‘Dark Chocolate Ganache’ delights with an outer casing of elegant, silky-smooth Belgian dark chocolate encasing an intense Madagascan vanilla-flavoured ganache. Divine, decadent, and delicious!
Fruit and chocolate lovers will adore the ‘Raspberry Ganache Heart’, an artisan crafted shell of the finest Belgian white chocolate filled with a zesty, mouth-watering raspberry ganache...this is chocolate heaven! Another crowd pleaser is certain to be the ‘Irish Cream Liqueur’, a rich, creamy luxurious liqueur truffle wrapped in smooth, velvety milk chocolate. Together, they create a unique and bewitching taste experience.
The Lir ‘Love Chocolate’ Collection is presented in beautiful, soft green packaging, with a gorgeous Gift Box (185g – RRP €10) and a stunning Gift Wrap Box (225g – RRP €12) which is complete with a luxurious green ribbon, making it the perfect gift for loved ones this Christmas.
