Two young Czech female designers and a Chef du pâtissier create these wonderful chocolat oeuvres d'art.
{Rozbíjím se / I break myself} say about themselves: I break myself is a project on the border of cuisine and design. Because we love chocolate, because we desire for beautiful future, because we love dreams and memories of them.
Yes, all this we can mix, wrap in a story and fasten of unique hand work, it is highly appreciated. We can conjure with the taste and shape and we will prove that the emotions can eat!}
