Roasted Almonds 85%

Roasted Almonds 85% is a production from Cocoanova, a dedicated maker focusing on high-percentage dark chocolate. This bar is crafted using raw materials sourced directly from the Idukki region in Kerala, India. The team emphasizes a minimalist approach to production, shunning additives like vanillin or vegetable fats in favor of a clean, ingredient-focused composition.

The chocolate provides a firm snap, typical of high-cacao content bars. The base is composed of organic whole cocoa beans, organic coconut sugar, and raw cocoa butter, providing an earthy foundation that balances the 85% intensity. The inclusion of almonds provides a toasted, textural contrast to the dark, smooth chocolate base, while natural sunflower lecithin is used to assist in the final texture of the bar.

Every 62-gram bar represents a commitment to sourcing specific regional cacao without relying on synthetic flavor enhancers. By utilizing organic coconut sugar as the sweetener, the maker alters the traditional flavor profile of the chocolate, introducing subtle caramel undertones that complement the inherent profile of the Indian-grown beans.
