A 70% dark chocolate inclusion bar from Hawaii, featuring organic cacao and freeze dried banana for a bright, fruity profile.
Mānoa Chocolate produces this bar in Kailua, Hawaii, operating as a bean-to-bar maker that emphasizes the local agricultural landscape. The Flavors of Hawaii line focuses on highlighting ingredients sourced within the region, establishing a distinct connection between the Hawaiian harvest and refined cacao. The bar earned a Silver award at the 2018 International Chocolate Awards Americas.
This 70% dark chocolate bar is crafted through a precise processing protocol. The raw cacao undergoes box fermentation before being dried on screens. To achieve the final texture, the chocolate is refined using a ball mill method. The inclusion profile relies on freeze dried banana powder, which integrates with the cocoa butter, organic cane sugar, and cacao to provide a crisp, fruit-forward finish.
The production process prioritizes transparency and accessibility, evidenced by the brand's adherence to Direct Trade sourcing practices. The bar is certified Vegan and Non-GMO, reflecting a clean ingredient list that focuses on the natural properties of the fruit and the bean rather than additives.
