A 66% dark bar featuring unroasted cacao from the Dominican Republic and Uganda, blended with caramelized banana, rum, and warm cinnamon notes.
The Bananas Foster bar reflects a specific approach to chocolate making that emphasizes the raw characteristics of the bean. By utilizing unroasted cacao, the producer aims to preserve the volatile aromatic compounds inherent in the fruit. This process relies on a melanger for refining the ingredients into a smooth texture before the final tempering process ensures a stable, consistent snap.
The sensory profile is defined by a 66% cacao blend sourced from the Zorzal Comunitario region of the Dominican Republic and the Semuliki Forest in Uganda. The inclusion of organic bananas, cinnamon, and vanilla bean creates a flavor profile reminiscent of the classic dessert. Notes of caramelized banana are balanced by a distinct warmth from the cinnamon and a subtle rum influence, creating a layered tasting experience.
Integrity remains a core focus, with the bar holding Organic and Non-GMO certifications. Safety and transparency are prioritized through external laboratory testing, which confirms the product is free from heavy metals. This commitment to production standards was recognized with a Good Food Award in 2018.
