2. Mozart Chocolate Liqueur Range

Mozart Chocolate Cream Liqueur is a unique Austrian speciality. Fine gourmet chocolate ingredients are used to create a wonderfully syrupy, well-rounded cream liqueur, which adds a touch of sweetness to the day and makes special evenings extra-unforgettable. Chiefly consisting of three luxurious flavours - white, Belgian and dark - the secret of Mozart's recipes lie in the precise quantities of ingredients and the different temperatures at which they are worked. This process is known as 'blending' the liqueur. The different temperatures used for working the ingredients and the elaborate blending processes are what gives the liqueur its unique flavour and texture.

The Belgian chocolate liqueur contains fresh cream, conched Belgian dark chocolate, genuine Bourbon vanilla from Madagascar, granulated sugar and the middle cut of sugar beet distillate. Beautifully creamy, this well-rounded liqueur is best enjoyed lightly chilled as a chocolate digestif, or used to add a touch of finesse to desserts. 

Mozart White Chocolate Vanilla Cream Liqueur is super smooth and chocolatey, made with fresh cream, cocoa butter, real Bourbon vanilla from Madagascar, white chocolate and caramel. With notes of aromatic vanilla, this velvety liqueur is indulgent yet light, with 60 percent less fat and significantly less alcohol (at only 15 percent) than other Irish Creams. Best served lightly chilled, enjoy the smoothness of the white chocolate combined with the sweet tastes of cream and caramel as a delicious digestif.

Mozart Dark Chocolate Liqueur is a bittersweet, sophisticated drink with a lingering finish. Delicately bitter dark chocolate and 87 cocoa pure cocoa are blended to create a unique drink that is a must-have ingredient for creative cocktail-making, as well as a sophisticated addition to certain desserts.
