Majani was the first chocolate maker to produce hard chocolate from the liquid drinks that were enjoyed by European aristocracy and clergy through the late 1700's. Their original shop opened in the center of Bologna in 1796 and is still in service today.
Their most signature creation is the world famous FIAT cube, made for one of the early FIAT automobiles in 1911. It is a fine chocolate made with four interchanging layers of milk chocolate and various fillings.
The tastefully designed and classically European paper wraps are a prelude to the fine chocolate.
