Baci Bijou is a perfect informal gift in elegant and refined packaging. A precious “bijou” to offer a delicious treat. Baci chocolate truffles is much more than a simple chocolate, it's a love and affection messenger, with its secret love notes wrapping the chocolate masterpiece. Baci has a beautiful story, invented in 1922 by Luisa Spagnoli, the creative genius owner of Perugina chocolate company. She created a delicious chocolate bonbon by blending only 8 ingredients: chocolate with a grounded hazelnut cream, mixing with tiny chopped hazelnuts pieces, crowning it with a whole crunchy hazelnut and covering it in fine dark chocolate. According to legend, the first love note appeared in the 1930s, when she wanted to send a secret love message to her beloved one. Nearly 100 years later, the original recipe and process remains unchanged and Baci continues to be crafted with love in Italy, in the same territory where it born, close to Perugia city, where the the factory has been established more than a century ago, and it is still today a symbol of quality chocolate and tradition. Baci is a simple gesture full of meanings, for gifting, sharing... or simply savouring.
