We Are Family

Submitted by J. Mikhail on

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – January 28, 2022 –

We Are Family, the 1979 song by Sister Sledge, will make the perfect soundtrack to the Barry Callebaut Family story. The lyrics capture the spirit of family, entrepreneurism and optimism that's grown the business from a European dream to a global leader in 25 years:

Living life is fun and we've just begun
To get our share of this world's delight
High hopes we have for the future
And our goal is in sight

Konnichiwa: cherry and almond

The cherry almond takes us on a fascinating journey to Japan. She invites us to immerse ourselves in this mysterious culture and be enchanted by the bewitching beauty of the sakura, the Japanese cherry blossom. Everyone who likes it fruity should definitely try the cherry almond: The crunchy whole milk chocolate is filled with a sour cherry cream (41%), which is refined with a light note of bitter almonds. The combination with chopped almonds (2.5%) promises an outstanding taste experience.
