NOKA Chocolate Rises to New Level of Luxury With Icon of Taste and Design

DALLAS, March 07, 2007 -- NOKA Chocolate, ranked the ''Best Chocolate in America'' by The Nikkei and the ''#1 Luxury Chocolate in the World'' by the food editors of TASTE, has unveiled its most significant work of art to date in its worldwide debut of the SKY Collection.

Towering 1.5 feet high with a total structure weight of 17 pounds, the SKY Collection contains 224 dark chocolate pieces from NOKA''s Vintages Collection™ and 24 handcrafted truffles from its Grand Cru Collection™. It consists of 10 precision laser-cut, brushed stainless-steel keepsake Signature Boxes™. This sleek, architecturally stunning contemporary design presents fine single-estate dark chocolates and truffles created with cacao sourced from exclusive plantations around the world.

NOKA designed the SKY Collection as a tribute to Howard Roark, the fictional hero in author Ayn Rand''s classic novel The Fountainhead. Like Roark''s unique, uncompromising, creative vision, NOKA''s SKY Collection stands up boldly against established conventions.
