The Riachuelo 51% is a Brazilian milk chocolate bar from Ilheus featuring high-quality cocoa, cocoa butter, and bourbon vanilla.
The Riachuelo 51% milk chocolate bar highlights the agricultural output of the Ilheus region in Brazil. This particular bar maintains a higher cocoa content than many conventional milk chocolates, positioning it in a space that balances the creaminess of milk with a more pronounced cacao profile.

This approach aims to showcase the interaction between the Brazilian cacao and the added vanilla, resulting in a profile that earned a Bronze award at the International Chocolate Awards in 2018.
