About
Porcelana 70% Criollo
Ara Chocolat is a dedicated bean-to-bar maker based in France that has earned a reputation for honoring the integrity of single-origin cacao. By carefully controlling the entire production process within their own workshop, they ensure that the unique characteristics of the harvest are preserved from the first roast to the final tempering. Their work represents a commitment to the art of small-batch chocolate making, where precision and patience define every bar.
The Porcelana 70% Criollo showcases one of the world's most storied and rare cacao varieties, sourced from the lush regions south of Lake Maracaibo in Venezuela. This chocolate is refined using a melanger, a process that gently develops a velvety texture while highlighting the sophisticated notes inherent in the Criollo bean. With a composition of only organic cocoa beans, organic cane sugar, and organic cocoa butter, the profile remains pure and focused, allowing the natural complexity of the terroir to shine through.
Commitment to quality at Ara Chocolat is underscored by their adherence to organic standards, ensuring that every step reflects environmental responsibility. The excellence of their craftsmanship has been recognized on the global stage, earning accolades such as the International Chocolate Awards European Silver and World Bronze in 2017. These honors reflect the meticulous approach taken to transform some of the finest beans on the planet into an exceptional sensory experience.
