Words from The French Pantry

The Gold Chef edible gold and silver products are produced by Giusto Manetti Battiloro, a leading company in the production of gold and silver leaves in Florence, Italy. The Manetti family has been practicing the noble art of goldbeating for more than four hundred years. Goldbeaters were craftsmen who, even in ancient times, knew how to transform an ingot into gold leaf so thin that it was almost impalpable. Since 1600, fifteen generations of Manettis have combined artisan tradition and technological innovation to guarantee the highest quality and reliability.

The Gold Chef product line is made from controlled, certified raw materials (every single batch of gold comes exclusively from countries with no human rights violations for the gold supply). All processing is carried out in Florence, in a production facility in possession of the Italian health authorization for the production and trade of food additives.

Gold Chef silver is 100% pure. Gold Chef gold is produced without the use of copper. The choice not to use copper is a guarantee of excellent quality. The gold is hypo-allergenic and has no trace of a metallic taste. The absence of copper, moreover, makes it possible for Giusto Manetti Battiloro to make the gold in the thinnest thicknesses on the market and to make sure the powder, crumbs, flakes, and gold leaf are imperceptible to the palate.

Gold Chef edible silver and edible gold are also certified as suitable for use in Kosher kitchens.

Why is 23K gold better? 
To be used in the food industry, edible gold must have a composition of over 90% gold, less than 7% silver, and less than 4% copper. (21.6K) This last metal is used by most manufacturers even though it is harmful to the body. Gold Chef's leaves are the purest and the thinnest on the market with 96% gold and 0% copper (23K).
