El Rey's special reserves are made up of its San Joaquín Reserva Privada, Sur del Lago, Chocolate 56% and Criollo Centenario tablets.
Chocolates The King
This chocolate house, which was born in 1929 as the Foundation of Tuozzo Zozaya y Cía Venezuela, stood out from the beginning for the production of its fine chocolate called El Rey.
And the success of this bar was so great inside and outside the Venezuelan borders that, in 1973, after associating with the Redmond family, this company was renamed Chocolates El Rey.
Years later, in 1995, this company became famous among chocolate chefs and culinary reporters from the United States and Europe with its Cocoa Route, which lasted a full week touring cocoa plantations, ending at the El Rey cocoa processing plant in Barquisimeto. .
Food journalist Miro Popic recalls in his book Comer en Venezuela an anecdote of these routes with the American writer Florence Braker, who fulfilled his wish to bathe in pure chocolate.
