About

About Vanilla 70%

Mindo Chocolate bridges Ecuadorian heritage and American craft by operating a bean-to-bar facility in Michigan. The identity of this producer is rooted in the direct connection to the source of their raw materials, reflecting an intentional approach to processing that honors the origin of the cacao.

The Vanilla 70% bar utilizes the prized Nacional bean variety sourced from Pichincha, Ecuador. The chocolate is stone-ground, a process that preserves the rustic texture and inherent aromatic oils of the cacao. The formulation is clean, consisting only of cocoa beans, cane sugar, and real vanilla bean, without the use of additives like lecithin or PGPR.

This commitment to traditional methods and high-quality inputs earned the bar a Silver award at the 2023 International Chocolate Awards. Each 50-gram bar serves as a transparent expression of its Ecuadorian roots, focusing on the synergy between the floral notes of the Nacional bean and the aromatic addition of vanilla.
