This 60% Trinitario cacao bar by KAICAO features Dominican Republic beans blended with tahini and sweetened with dates for a unique, organic profile.
KAICAO produces this bar in the European specialty chocolate landscape, focusing on ingredient transparency and alternative sweeteners. The 60% Tahini y sésamo bar highlights the use of Trinitario cacao beans sourced specifically from the Okó Caribe region of the Dominican Republic.
The profile of this bar relies on a distinct ingredient list, utilizing dates as an alternative sweetener rather than traditional sugar. To achieve its specific texture and flavor integration, the cacao is refined using a melanger. The inclusion of tahini and toasted sesame seeds introduces a nutty, savory dimension that balances the fruit-forward notes typically associated with this bean variety.
The quality of the production is recognized through international industry standards, as the bar earned Silver at the International Chocolate Awards for both the European and World competitions in 2021-22. All ingredients used are certified organic, reflecting a focused approach to raw material sourcing.
