PRODUCT
How should chocolate be preserved?
We recommend keeping our chocolates in a cool space between 15°C and 20°C. However, if you don't have space for this temperature, you can keep them in the coldest area of your refrigerator and leave them in their original packaging. Avoid exposing them to heat and then putting them back in the fridge, chocolate hates temperature shocks.
What is the deadline for your chocolates to be consumed?
The DLUO (Optimal Use Limit Date) is shown on each of our products. It can vary between 1 and 12 months, depending on the type of product. For boxes, we recommend eating them within a month in order to keep all the flavor of our products.

Cocoa beans come mainly from Ghana and Ivory Coast.
Are your Leonidas pralines/chocolates kosher?
No, but a selection of our products are certified kosher. More information about kosher products can be available on this page.
Can there be allergens in your products?
All Leonidas products are made in the same place, so they may contain traces of allergens even though they would not initially contain any. More information about allergens can be available on this page.
