Rich, dark chocolate is more than just a treat for your taste buds. Long recognized as a superfood, chocolate contains minerals and antioxidants that help promote well-being. For more than 4000 years, this mysterious food from the cocoa bean has been used for ritual, medicine, in celebration, and for sheer pleasure, our personal favorite.
The organic fair trade dark chocolate that envelops our dipped bars, and is in our pint flavors with chocolate flakes, is crafted in an allergen-free facility in a small coastal town south of Lima, Peru. The processing facility is family owned and specializes in cocoa and chocolate production for smaller markets. The organic and fair trade certified cocoa beans are purchased from small-scale farmers in the growing regions of Northern and Eastern Peru. Some of these farmers are part of cooperatives that support social programs in their communities. The processor independently supports programs that includes building and renovating schools, and providing farmers with the necessary tools for successful cocoa production. They also provide free training sessions to the farmers on various topics such as modern pruning techniques, fermentation, and health care.
We picked this chocolate expressly because it meets our rigorous ingredient and allergen control standards. It is lightly sweetened with organic, fair trade cane sugar. Other sweeteners are not currently available in a chocolate as fine as this.
With great pleasure we offer you our divinely creamy coconut milk ice cream paired with the finest allergen-free dark chocolate. It truly is Bliss!
