In the late 1890s, a young chat roamed the streets of MontĂ©limar in search of the perfect bonbons - demander la lune for nougat-extraordinaire. The local confiseries, while exquisite, could not satisfy Mort’s sweet tooth. After making his way across Europe, through the spice routes of Asia and Africa, he found himself on a schooner bound for the new world. Â
Blessed with a palette immaculĂ©, and crates full of the world’s greatest sweets, he traveled across America - selling his wares in his neverending search for the perfect bite. Â
Â
Eventually this led him to the shores of The Mississippi and the booming industries of Minneapolis. He set up his shop Le Sweet Mort – bringing joy to the hardworking folks of this Midwest metropolis, before disappearing as mysteriously as he had arrived.Â
Here inside Corazon we celebrate the Gourmand’s love of sweets; a curation he would have found magnifique. Mort never found satisfaction in his unending search, but we hope you take pleasure in a moment of sweet bliss.
