Paradai, a Thai bean-to-bar producer, gains recognition for highlighting regional Thai cacao through precise processing. This 70% dark chocolate bar originates from Nakhon Si, a region where the maker focuses on the specific post-harvest treatment of rare red cacao pods. By separating these red pods, Paradai leverages their ability to ferment faster and at higher temperatures than standard yellow varieties.
The 50-gram bar is refined in a melanger to achieve a specific texture. The sensory profile is notably bright, reflecting the unique fermentation environment of the red pods. Tasters often identify notes of citrus, sour cherry, lychee, and guanabana, rounded out by subtle undertones of rum and honey. This specific production method was recognized with a World Gold award at the 2023 International Chocolate Awards.
The composition remains straightforward, consisting only of cocoa, cocoa butter, and cane sugar. By prioritizing the separation of pod types during fermentation, Paradai emphasizes the influence of post-harvest handling on the final flavor profile of Thai-grown cacao.
