Produced by the Italian chocolatier Amedei, Porcelana 70% stands as a benchmark in the specialty sector.

Amedei maintains a philosophy categorized as Cioccolato Assoluto and Cacao Superiore, focusing on the preservation of these delicate beans.
The sensory experience is defined by the genetics of the Porcelana bean. The bar offers a profile characterized by notes of almond, toasted bread, and bay leaf. Composed of cocoa mass, cane sugar, and cocoa butter, the recipe is kept intentional to highlight the raw materials. It has received consistent industry recognition, earning multiple gold awards from the Academy of Chocolate between 2006 and 2024.
This 50 gram bar adheres to strict production standards, carrying both Non-GMO and Kosher Dairy certifications. By maintaining a fixed 70% cocoa content, the maker emphasizes the natural characteristics of the Venezuelan origin beans. Every 100 grams of the finished product provides 568 kcal.
