"If you're looking for something unique and special, something different from the ordinary desserts, our products really stand apart," says Evert deBoer, president of de Boer Food Importers in Florida. "Many of our desserts help hotels frequently achieve the 'wow' effect," he adds.

As the largest importer of fine desserts from Europe, deBoer Food Importers sells lines from ten dessert companies in the United States, representing European countries such as Holland, France and Denmark. Products range from pastries to frozen desserts, napoleons to eclairs.

Additionally, deBoer is now working with Dobla, a leading chocolate manufacturer from Holland. Dobla specializes in innovative chocolate decorations and is considered on the cutting edge of new chocolate products.

Dobla offers dozens of new products in multiple chocolate flavors and designs. The available selections, with names such as "African Tatoo" and "Prince of Darkness," appear to be the ultimate in designer chocolate.

For cups, toppings, and decorations, deBoer is expecting 15-20 new items from Dobla in the next year alone.

Additionally, deBoer goes far beyond chocolate desserts. Says deBoer, "We are prepared for every possible dessert application. While our customer base is heavily built upon top hotels and top caterers - the very upscale - we offer many moderately priced options for a range of venues, restaurants, and buffets."
