Yes, absolutely! Creating custom flavours and designs for clients is one of Carambole's favourite activities. And we do work with challenging requests, too! Savory bonbons, bonbons with different types of cheese, turf whisky, chicken-maple syrup …Nothing is too quirky for Carambole, and the sky's the limit🚀
It’s an exciting challenge when the idea comes from someone else. Companies in the food industry often ask us to incorporate their spirits, fruits, nuts, or even chocolate into bonbons 🥑🍒🍇🥒🥕🧄🥂🥃🍷
A bit of math:
• €3 per bonbon
• €100-250 development fee per custom flavour, depending on complexity and urgency
• Min. 100 bonbons in the order
• Recipes with exclusive rights are possible on request

There are just a few things to keep in mind:

- Order can be picked up from the studio in Amersfoort or delivered per post service to your home / office.
Chocolate isn't really fridge-friendly—cacao butter and humidity aren't best friends. To keep chocolate snappy and glossy, it requires stable temperatures, low humidity, and darkness 🌚
Once the room temperature hits +24°C, it's time to get the situation under control. If you live in warmer countries, it can get tricky. The best storage conditions would be +16-18C. It could still be a fridge, but a wine fridge or a chocolate fridge🤓 Those don’t produce high humidity, which might affect your bonbons’ look and gloss. If you have a wine cellar, that is the perfect option as well.
If nothing from the above works, put your box of fresh bonbons in an airtight container and store them in a normal fridge.
