In Nicaragua, Friis-Holm learned a very special way of processing cocoa beans. He was so enthusiastic about the cacao and its fermentation that he now only uses cacao beans for production that are fermented and dried according to his ideas. In the beginning, he had his Friis-Holm chocolate produced by the French company Bonnat, but he now owns his own production.

Friis-Holm at Galileo
Mikkel Friis-Holm gave an insight into the production of his chocolate to a TV team from Galileo in June 2020. We gladly link to the 10 minute report of Galileo at YouTube. Now that Mikkel Friis-Holm has been producing consistently outstanding quality with his chocolates for 10 years and has been collecting world gold medals for just as long, including at the International Chocolate Awards, ZDF has now also dedicated a 20-minute programme to him, appearing on German ZDF Mittagsmagazin. Here is a short excerpt about the "World Champion of Chocolaterie" (in german).
Friis-Holm has been making chocolate since meeting John Scharffenberger and Robert Steinberg, the co-founders of Scharffen Berger Chocolate of California. Since then, he has been the exclusive importer of Scharffen Berger chocolate in Denmark. In the beginning, he had his Friis-Holm chocolate made by the French company Bonnat, but he now owns his own production. Mikkel Friis-Holm is a true visionary when it comes to chocolate production, as he was the first to launch two identical chocolates on the market, differing only in the way they are fermented. The amazing thing is the surprisingly different taste of both chocolates.

Friis-Holm regularly participates in the International Chocolate Awards for several reasons. The International Chocolate Awards is the only fully independent international competition. At the same time, the Chocolate Awards explicitly aim to promote and support the production of high-quality fine chocolate worldwide. They also aim to support the producers who grow and nurture the high-quality cocoa beans. And that is why Mikkel Friis-Hom is rightly particularly proud of the fact that the quality of his chocolates has won him many gold medals at the International Chocolate Awards.
