So consider this my first official introduction along with the must-do cheesy photo shot, which apparently is a requirement for all Chocolatiers😂.
My name is Naoufal N. Guelzim I was born and raised in Morocco and I am the founder/ Head Chocolatier here at Maison Noir.
My story with Dark chocolate started about 10 years ago after I came back from a trip to Europe, once I started running low on the chocolate haul I brought along then I started trying to find somewhere locally to get my fix, but to my dismay there was none! So I immediately knew that there was a niche to fill, and took on the challenge. I started by taking classes, watching countless videos, and lots of trial and error, mostly error though!😂 Fast forward I now run a chocolatier that specializes in sustainable Dark chocolate and confectionery using imported Cacao Barry chocolate only.

Ever wonder what chocolates we use here at Maison Noir Chocolatier?
Being a Dark chocolate ONLY chocolatier (hence the name Noir), we often get the question: "But why
only Dark?" The answer is quite simple and biased: "Because it's the best!”🤭although others might argue
otherwise, and we get it. We believe that -with just like everything else in life- we all go through different phases, and the same goes for our palette and tastes.
I personally used to chow on unlimited amounts of TOBLERONE triangles, then outgrew it when I became more health conscious, so I switched to Lindth Extra Dark 90%, but that didn't last long, as it was not a sustainable move, and quite frankly it was too bitter for my taste. Fast forward, I now run a chocolaterie that solely uses one and only one chocolate: the "64% Dark chocolate couverture Cacao Barry Guayaquil".
Known for its intense cocoa taste, Guayaquil has a great balance between bitter, roasted, sour, fruity,
woody, and floral notes, delicately lifted with a hint of coffee and chestnut, just perfect for your sweet
spot. Not to mention that the cacao used is 💯 traceable ensuring transparency, quality, ethics, and sustainability, which align well with our brand and mission.
PS: You might have noticed that we always capitalize "Dark", it's intentional, as we at Maison Noir like to
give Dark chocolate the respect it deserves, we are weird that way! Don't judge, you'll get there eventually! 😂😉
