Creole Gardens Milk is a 55% Haitian milk chocolate by SOMA, offering delicate notes of caramel, malt, and jasmine.
SOMA, based in Toronto, is an artisan maker dedicated to the craft of bean-to-bar chocolate. The Creole Gardens Milk bar highlights cacao sourced from Cap-Haïtien, Haiti. This particular origin benefits from a centralized fermentation protocol at the PISA facility, which utilizes controlled box fermentation to maintain consistency.
This 55% cacao bar is crafted from organic cacao nibs, organic cane sugar, organic cocoa butter, milk powder, and salt. The cacao undergoes a rigorous 7-day fermentation followed by 4-7 days of sun drying to develop its character. On the palate, the resulting profile expresses a balance of caramel and malt sweetness, finished with a subtle aromatic lift of jasmine.
The production process focuses on clarity of flavor. By using centralized post-harvest processing in Haiti, the maker ensures that the specific environmental influences of the region are preserved through the roasting and conching stages, resulting in a milk chocolate that remains grounded in its tropical origin.
