Hungarians make one of the world’s most unique chocolate bonbons – PHOTOS

There is a Hungarian chocolate manufacturer called Sweetic that has been amassing awards after awards for its unique chocolate bonbons every single year. Now, it nabbed silver in one of the world’s most prestigious chocolate tasting competitions.

Sweetic started as a small family business in 2013, but over the years it has grown into an award-winning company. Today, it boasts over 50 awards from international and domestic competitions.

Awards

According to Origo, Sweetic has been performing outstandingly in international chocolate tasting competitions such as the International Chocolate Awards, the Great Taste and the Academy of Chocolate.

The small Hungarian chocolate manufacturer has received at least one star for its products at the Great Taste Awards every year since 2015.

Its most recent success is connected to the Academy of Chocolate competition. “The Academy of Chocolate was founded in 2005 by five of Britain’s leading chocolate professionals” in order to popularise fine chocolate making and consumption as well as to raise awareness of the difference between artisan and mass-produced chocolates.

At the Academy of Chocolate’s Thirteenth Golden Beam Awards (2021), the owners of Sweetic have managed to grab three awards in three different categories:

• in the Nut Based category they received the silver bean for their Sambirano bonbon
• their Spicy tropical bonbon brought them a bronze bean in the Fruit, Spice, Infusion Ganache category
• and, last but not least, they nabbed the silver bean in the Brand Experience category.

It is important to note that the Brand Experience category is the latest category at the Academy of Chocolate Awards and it constitutes a great success for a small Hungarian manufacturer.

This category combines everything, the taste, the looks, the packaging and the entire feel of the product.
