A 68% Dominican salted dark chocolate by Bare Bones, featuring beans from the Duarte region and finished with sea salt.
Bare Bones is an artisan chocolate maker based in Glasgow. As a dedicated bean-to-bar producer, they handle the entire transformation process from raw cocoa bean to finished bar, maintaining full control over the technical aspects of production.
The 68% Dominican Salted Chocolate is crafted using cocoa beans sourced specifically from the Duarte region. These beans undergo a precise fermentation protocol in four tiers of wooden boxes to develop their character. The resulting bar balances the natural notes of the cocoa with raw unrefined cane sugar, additional cocoa butter, and a precise inclusion of sea salt.
The bar is produced under organic and vegan standards. Its approach to quality has been recognized by industry panels, earning a Silver award from the Academy of Chocolate in both 2021 and 2022, as well as a 2-star rating at the Great Taste awards in 2022.
