Evaluations of curiosity
Time Out (2012) “His creations are as a lot artwork as they’re confection. Chocolate sneakers, guitars, and diamond rings enhance the darkish picket counters, prompting dropped jaws amongst passersby. They usually style pretty much as good as they appear, which is exceptional. For the adventurous, Hévin specialises within the beguiling mixture of chocolate with potent cheese fillings, which loyal clients serve with wine as an aperitif.”
France At present (2012) “In any respect of them you’ll discover a number of the metropolis’s most interesting chocolate—Hévin is a fanatic for the standard of his elements—reworked into a number of the most imaginative shapes on the town. It’s exhausting to beat the attraction of his coeur en dentelle, a lacy webbing of chocolate in two components that kinds a heart-shaped field for stuffed bonbons.”
Paris Pâtisseries (2010) “…a spotlight of my dessert and chocolate romp across the Metropolis of Mild…I don’t suppose I ever had any chocolate mousse or chocolate gateau at Hévin that ever got here up brief…”
Bruno Verjus (2010) “Ici, les envies chocolatées se voient comblées de chocolat apéritif, chocolat snack, chocolat dessert, chocolat énergisant, aphrodisiaque, zen, cocktail et de grands crus de cacao. L’on y déjeune de salades, de plats diététiques et de jus de fruits énergisants.”
Figaroscope (2010) “Pralinés élégants, éclairs d’anthologie, crus subtiles…depuis vingt ans, ce grand chocolatier marie humour et exigence. Craquant.”
Francois Simon (2008) “…une mousse au chocolat au lait diablement légère, aérienne mais joliment chocolatée ; un superbe travail dans la reconstitution du goût des fèves…Un grand second. Quant à la tarte au chocolat (qui devrait arriver en nouvelle model d’ici peu), il ne faut surtout pas hésiter à la demander chaude. Là, on perd tout contrôle…Le chocolat est en vous aussi puissante qu’une intravéneuse. Aussi bon que l’opium.”
