About Smooth Dark 70%
Smooth Dark 70% is a single-origin chocolate bar sourced from the Solomon Islands.
The sensory profile of this bar is defined by the use of organic coconut sap sugar, which imparts notes of malt and wild honey. The combination of these specific ingredients creates a composition that departs from traditional cane sugar-based chocolates, resulting in a distinct palate experience.
The formulation is certified vegan and relies on a short ingredient list of cacao beans, organic coconut sap sugar, and organic cocoa butter. Consumers should be aware that the production environment may involve traces of tree nuts and sesame.
