This 75% dark chocolate by French maker François Pralus highlights Forastero beans from São Tomé & Principe with intense, fruity, and spicy notes.
François Pralus is a storied French chocolate maker based in Roanne, having established operations in 1948. As an artisan producer, the house maintains control over the transformation of cacao from raw beans into finished bars. This particular bar represents their work with beans sourced from the islands of São Tomé & Principe, a region historically significant for its high-quality cacao production.
The São Tomé & Principe 75% bar utilizes Forastero cacao, a variety known for its robust character. The resulting chocolate profile is intense, defined by fresh, fruity, and tangy dimensions balanced by distinct spicy undertones. It concludes with a long finish on the palate, reflecting the specific processing techniques applied at the Pralus facility.
The composition of this bar includes cocoa, sugar, cocoa butter, and sunflower lecithin. It is important to note for those with dietary sensitivities that this product is manufactured in a facility that also handles nuts and milk. Each 100g serving provides an energy content of 585 kcal.
