Feitoria do Cacao is an artisan bean-to-bar maker based in Aveiro, Portugal. The brand focuses on small-batch production, crafting bars that highlight the specific characteristics of their sourced beans without the use of additives such as lecithin, vanillin, or vegetable fats.
This 57% cacao bar utilizes beans from Waslala, Nicaragua. The addition of both skimmed milk powder and whole milk powder creates a creamy base that complements the natural profile of the cacao. The tasting experience highlights a blend of sweet and nutty characteristics, specifically showcasing notes of raisins, peanut, hazelnut, and caramel. This specific recipe was recognized with a Bronze award at the Academy of Chocolate in 2018.
Each bar weighs 50 grams and reflects the precise, manual approach taken by the makers in their Portuguese workshop. By controlling the entire production process, the brand ensures the integrity of the ingredients, focusing on a clean list that relies on the quality of the cocoa butter and sugar to support the Waslala origin.
