ARMANI/DOLCI BY GUIDO GOBINO, STILISH AND DELICIOUS

Mâitre chocolatier Guido Gobino, ‘king’ of the Turin gianduiotto and Italian leader of the artisan segment, signed a long-term licensing agreement for the production and distribution of Armani/dolci products all over the world. The line, called Armani/dolci by Guido Gobino, is on sale, in the new Emporio Armani Caffè and Ristorante in Milan and in twelve stores abroad – from Paris to Kuala Lumpur. Guido Gobino inherited the lab from his father Giuseppe, owner of a small chocolate and candy factory that in the eighties was converted into a small company specializing in the production of chocolate and focusing on typical Turin products such as Gianduiotto, the Gianduia Chocolate spread and Chocolate with Hazelnut. The highest quality raw materials – cocoa beans from Venezuela, Ecuador, Sao Tome, and Mexico, IGP hazelnuts from the Langhe, and milk from Piedmont – and cutting-edge production techniques, earned Gobino numerous international awards, and today it is a Made in Italy chocolate brand known throughout Europe, the United States, and in Japan. Giorgio Armani commented: “I am pleased with this new collaboration. A natural consequence of the meeting between the desire to offer my customers a top-quality product and the sophistication of Guido Gobino’s artisanal chocolate, which is recognized all over the world.” While Gobino said: “It is an honor to collaborate with Giorgio Armani, who is internationally recognized for his prestige”.
