Friis Holm is a Danish maker recognized for a meticulous approach to chocolate production. This white chocolate bar represents a deliberate departure from conventional confectionery standards, highlighting a 40% cocoa butter content sourced from Ecuador. By focusing on a lean ingredient list of cocoa butter, sugar, and milk powder, the maker prioritizes the inherent qualities of the raw materials.
