I am Luchino and this is my artisan chocolate shop in Modica
Modica, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is considered the cradle of European chocolate. I have been breathing it since I was a child and opening a chocolate shop had always been my dream.
Today, in my laboratories, I have been producing the chocolate of Modica for over 10 years according to the traditional recipe handed down from the Spanish and PGI regulations. I process our chocolate and other sweets according to tradition and still in an artisanal way. That is why each product is different and each one tells its own story.
