Sumptuous and decadent, this BBC film explores the “elixir of the gods”, our greatest gastronomic indulgence: chocolate. With chocolate worshiper, Michel Roux Jr. as our guide, we uncover the rich history of the best chocolate in the world and what it takes to make it. And Michel sets out on the ultimate quest: to create his own blend of chocolate, at the oldest chocolate manufacturer in the world, Cacao Barry, for his desserts at his Michelin starred restaurant, Le Gavroche. Designed for himself like a piece of couture to transport his desserts to a new and ecstatic level, there will be no other chocolate quite like it.
