Pastelinho de Goiás

The Pastelinho de Goiás bar is a creation from C'alma, an artisan bean-to-bar producer based in Brazil. Operating under the philosophy of 'Do grão à barra,' the maker focuses on transforming raw cocoa into finished bars within their own facility. This specific release is a cultural homage to the Goiás region, aiming to capture the essence of a local traditional pastry.

As a 54% cacao dark chocolate, this bar incorporates whole milk powder and cocoa butter to achieve a creamy texture. The inclusion of cinnamon and actual pieces of pastelinho creates a distinct flavor profile characterized by notes of dulce de leche and baked pastry.

C'alma sources ingredients with attention to the specific heritage of their region, integrating organic sugar and refined botanical elements like cinnamon. The 60-gram bar highlights the intersection of modern bean-to-bar craftsmanship and traditional Brazilian confectionery, maintaining a commitment to small-batch production.
