About Caramelized Cacao Nibs 70%
Argencove operates as a tree-to-bar producer based in Nicaragua. Unlike many makers who purchase dried beans, Argencove maintains control over the entire process by growing its own cacao on its own estates. This full vertical integration ensures that the raw material is managed from the initial harvest to the final bar production within the country of origin.
The Caramelized Cacao Nibs 70% bar highlights a focus on texture and sweetness. With a formulation of cacao, cane sugar, and cacao nibs, the bar offers a clear interplay between the smooth base and the added crunch of the nibs. The inclusion provides a distinct caramelized profile, maintaining a sweet balance that complements the higher cocoa percentage.
The quality and specific approach of this producer have earned recognition on the international stage. The bar has received accolades from the Academy of Chocolate and the International Chocolate Awards, marking its presence in the competition circuit for inclusion-based chocolates.
