Rating: 5 (1 reviews)

Friis Holm is a Danish bean-to-bar producer dedicated to the meticulous transformation of cacao. Operating from Denmark, the maker focuses on the nuances of fermentation and roast to showcase the natural characteristics of the origin, moving away from mass-market production methods in favor of deliberate, small-batch techniques.

The Dark Milk 65% bar highlights a balance between high-cacao intensity and the creaminess provided by milk powder. This bar relies on a short ingredient list of cocoa beans, sugar, cocoa butter, and milk powder, intentionally omitting lecithin, vanillin, and vegetable fats to preserve the integrity of the cocoa from Nicaragua. Its composition results in a profile with 36g of sugar and 41g of fat per 100g.

The approach taken by Friis Holm has garnered significant recognition within the industry. This specific bar has been distinguished with Gold medals at the International Chocolate Awards World in both 2014 and 2017, reflecting a consistent standard in processing and flavor development.
