About Pure Joy Dark + Cinnamon
Chocolate Makers, based in Amsterdam, operates as a bean-to-bar producer. The company focuses on specific origins, managing the transformation from raw bean to finished product within its own facility. This particular bar represents a collaboration between European processing and ancestral agricultural heritage.
The foundation of this 55% cacao bar rests on Criollo beans harvested in the Sierra Nevada region of Colombia. These beans are fermented and dried by the Arhuaco people using traditional methods before being processed into chocolate. The inclusion of cinnamon provides a warm aromatic profile that complements the natural character of the Criollo cocoa mass and cocoa butter.
Beyond the production process, the bar adheres to specific standards, holding Organic and Fairtrade certifications while remaining gluten free. Each 80-gram bar is formulated with cane sugar and rapeseed lecithin as an emulsifier to achieve its final texture.
