About Ghana 42%
Chocolate Philosophy is a melter based in India: it makes its bars from couverture chocolate rather than from cacao beans.
The Ghana 42% bar is a standard milk chocolate featuring a 30g weight. The sensory profile is defined by notes of hazelnut and caramel, supported by a recipe that includes cocoa mass, sugar, and dairy milk powder. The maker confirms the use of tempering for this bar, and the formulation utilizes natural vanilla and soya lecithin for texture and aroma balance.
The production avoids the use of vegetable fats, PGPR, or additional cocoa butter. By omitting alkalization, the bar retains its base characteristics from the Ghanaian origin while maintaining a sugar content of 26.9g per 100g and 7.5g of protein per 100g.
