A 45% white chocolate bar from Portuguese maker Feitoria do Cacao, crafted with non-deodorized cocoa butter from the Ilha de Santiago in Cabo Verde.
Branco Leite dos Açores is produced by Feitoria do Cacao, an artisan bean-to-bar maker based in Aveiro, Portugal. The maker focuses on small-batch production, highlighting the nuances of specific cacao origins through a hands-on approach to processing.
This 45% white chocolate bar is distinguished by the use of non-deodorized cocoa butter extracted from beans sourced from Ilha de Santiago in Cabo Verde. The cacao beans undergo fermentation in wooden boxes and are dried in the sun, preserving the natural character of the lipid content. The recipe is simple, containing only cocoa butter, whole milk powder, and cane sugar, which allows the raw qualities of the Cabo Verde beans to remain the primary focus.
Feitoria do Cacao operates under a direct trade model to acquire their raw materials. Their work has earned recognition within the industry, securing accolades such as the International Chocolate Awards and Great Taste stars.
