Bon fiction and La Folie create A Night in Amsterdam, a limited edition chocolate bar

Bon Fiction's 'A Night in Amsterdam' a limited edition chocolate bar created in collaboration with La Folie celebrates love

Bon Fiction, one of India’s craft chocolates from Rajamundhry in Andhra Pradesh , has announced its newest collaboration. Named ‘A Night in Amsterdam,’ the limited edition chocolate bar is in partnership with La Folie from Mumbai. The creation stems from an encounter between Sanjana Patel of La Folie and Akhil Grandhi of Bon Fiction during a Chocoa 2024 meet in Amsterdam. A Night in Amsterdam, the chocolate bar is a tribute to self-love and the belief that love transcends all boundaries.

‘Love is Love, their theme for Valentine’s Day in February, expressed the brands’ outlook to inclusivity and acceptance.  

Speaking about the collaboration, Akhil Grandhi says, “As we strolled around central Amsterdam, we came across a brass plate beside a church. The brass artwork named Borstplaat or breastplate, was a homage to the city’s sex workers. While reading it Sanjana and I realised we were on the same campaign, though we are unaware of it then.” 

When Sanjana put forward the idea of collaboration, Akhil was thrilled, especially at the idea of the unprecedented coming together of two brands to create a limited edition chocolate bar. The 72% dark chocolate bar has love inscribed on one of its side.

The chocolate bar features fruity and frisky tasting notes of raspberries in a blend of Guatemalan cacao and cacao from Bon Fiction’s farms in the Godavari region. Akhil adds, “We suggested the flavour profile and the team at La Folie created it using Bon Fiction’s cacao beans and a mix of white chocolate and raspberry.” 

A night in Amsterdam is available on the websites of both the brands. Bonfiction’s store in Novotel Hyderabad HICC, and on Indian Craft Chocolate’s exclusive shelf in Bengaluru.
