Kamananui

Kamananui is a signature bar produced by Mānoa Chocolate, an artisan maker based in Kailua, Hawaii. This bar represents a localized approach to chocolate production, highlighting the potential of cacao grown within the Hawaiian islands.

The sensory experience of this 70% dark bar is characterized by a comforting, dessert-like flavor profile, specifically notes of honey, toasted marshmallow, and graham cracker. Achieving this requires precise processing, beginning with a 7-day wooden box fermentation, during which the beans are turned every 48 hours. Following fermentation, the cacao is sun-dried on redwood racks for 7-10 days to stabilize the moisture content before roasting.

The composition of the bar is limited to three core components: Hawaiian cacao, organic cane sugar, and added cocoa butter for texture. The quality of this approach has been recognized by industry organizations, earning accolades such as the Good Food Award 2022 and recognition at the Academy of Chocolate and International Chocolate Awards in 2021.
