At SUR Chocolates, we believe that “home” isn’t always defined by bricks or postcode—it’s where your heart feels still, aligned, safe. Thus we dreamed up “Cruz del Sur”—the Southern Cross—a constellation that sailors of old turned to when they were far from shore. They used it as a guide, a way to navigate back. This festive season, we invite you to follow that guiding light and let “home” mean what it truly should: heart-felt connection.
✨ The Inspiration
Visible only in the southern hemisphere, the constellation known as the Southern Cross helped sailors find their way across vast oceans, back to familiarity and safety. We imagined that same sense of return—returning to what matters, to the people we love, to the moments that ground us. With Cruz del Sur we wanted to create more than just a confection; we wanted to create a star that leads you back to the heart of the festive season.
🎁 The Box: A Voyage of Flavour
This is no ordinary collection. With only 150 boxes available for pre-order, each one is handcrafted and sent in time for Christmas. Inside the box you’ll find 3 × 2 (six alfajores in total), each one a journey of taste, texture and story. The details:
-
Stardust – A shining moment: crunchy hazelnut praline giving way to a flowing liquid coffee heart, all wrapped in 85% Tumaco Colombian dark chocolate.
-
Milkyway – A soft cloud of velvety pistachio praline with a bright, tangy passion-fruit centre, coated in expressive 70% Peruvian dark chocolate.
-
Gigante Rojo – A bold red-giant creation: smooth peanut praline bursting into vibrant hot raspberry jelly, balanced with rich 65% Brazilian dark chocolate.
These are flavours inspired by the heavens, crafted to be unexpected, evocative, and distinctly festive.
🏠 Why Now, Why This
In a year where distance and difference have defined so much of our lives, we wanted to celebrate return—the return to presence, to gathering, to home (however you define it). The stars have always reminded humans that even when you’re adrift, there is guidance; there is way-back. With Cruz del Sur, we’ve captured that feeling in chocolate form. And because it’s limited, it becomes a celebration of the moment — rare, precious, and for now.
