Stockists worldwide.
Produced by the UK-based tree-to-bar maker Åkesson's, the Ambolikapiky Plantation 100% Criollo Cocoa bar originates from the Sambirano Valley in Madagascar. The cacao is harvested specifically from the Ambolikapiky Plantation, which serves as a segment of the broader Bejofo Estate. This chocolate holds Organic and Bio certifications.
The 60-gram bar consists entirely of organic cocoa beans and organic cocoa butter. The production process excludes the use of lecithin, vanillin, and vegetable fats. During post-harvest, the Criollo beans undergo fermentation in wooden boxes followed by sun-drying on mats. This preparation results in a flavor profile characterized by citrus, red berries, fruity-sweet tartness, roasted nuts, and earthiness. In 2015, the bar received a Gold 3 Stars award at the Great Taste Awards.
Regarding nutritional composition, the bar contains 0.2g of sugar and 53.7g of fat per 100g.
