A Gold Medalist 100% cacao bar from Taiwan, crafted by Fu Wan Chocolate with Trinitario beans for a complex profile of tropical fruits, spices, and caramel.
As an artisan bean-to-bar maker, the producer has gained international recognition for highlighting the unique potential of local cacao. This specific bar, the Taiwan #1 Ping Tung 100%, serves as a pure expression of its origin, having secured the International Chocolate Awards Asia-Pacific Gold in 2025.
The sensory experience of this bar is defined by the depth of its 100% cacao composition. Crafted using only cocoa beans and cocoa butter, it avoids all additives to focus entirely on the nuance of the Trinitario variety. The palate is greeted with a sophisticated array of tropical fruits, warm spices, nutty undertones, and a subtle caramel finish. This profile is achieved through a meticulous process involving 168 hours of box fermentation and 7 days of sun drying, followed by a refined ball mill process to reach its final texture.
Quality and purity are central to the identity of this producer. Beyond the craft itself, the brand prioritizes transparency and safety in its production chain. Rigorous laboratory testing confirms the bar is clean and free of heavy metals, meeting strict standards for lead-free and low-cadmium content. This commitment ensures that enthusiasts can explore the raw, unadulterated character of Ping Tung cacao with total confidence in its integrity.
