Lareka's BTB25: A Perfect Match for the Artistry of Vincent Guerlais's unique Chocolate Bars

Updated: 21 May 2024

In the world of chocolate craftsmanship, Vincent Guerlais stands at the very top. Guerlais is known for his artful creations and innovative approach to chocolate making. As the head of the prestigious Relais Desserts group in France, Guerlais has carved a niche for himself by incorporating an array of fillings and toppings into his chocolate bars, setting a standard for creativity and taste. Lareka's BTB25, a packaging machine designed to handle the complexities of craft chocolate, has become the perfect companion for the unique products of Guerlais.

One of the distinctive features of Vincent Guerlais's chocolate bars lies in the multitude of toppings, ranging from nuts to candied fruits, seamlessly blending with a variety of chocolate. These toppings, while adding to the complexity and delight of the chocolates, often pose a challenge when it comes to the packaging process. Irregularities and height differences can make it difficult for conventional packaging machines to wrap these bars with the precision and care they deserve.

 

Enter Lareka's BTB25 – tailored to meet the unique demands of craft chocolate makers like Guerlais. Unlike traditional packaging machines, the BTB25 is specially engineered to handle the challenges that toppings bring, ensuring that each bar is wrapped with precision and finesse. The machine's adaptability to various heights and textures makes it an ideal choice for artisans.

The collaboration between Vincent Guerlais and Lareka showcases the importance of marrying artistry with technology in the world of craft chocolate making. As more craft chocolate makers experiment with unconventional toppings and fillings, the BTB25 emerges as a vital tool, empowering chocolatiers to preserve the integrity of their creations while streamlining the packaging process.
