About Saffron 70%

Standout Chocolate is a dedicated bean-to-bar maker based in Sweden. By keeping their production small and focused, they maintain full control over the transformation of the raw cacao into the final 50-gram bar, ensuring that the unique characteristics of the harvest are preserved through every step of the process.

The Saffron 70% bar highlights cacao sourced from Cap-Haitien, Haiti, which undergoes a precise 6-day fermentation in wooden boxes before being sun-dried. This careful preparation creates a vibrant flavor profile defined by distinct notes of honey, citrus, and delicate floral undertones. The inclusion of premium saffron perfectly complements these natural cacao attributes, resulting in a complex and award-winning tasting experience.

Craftsmanship at this level relies on the purity of ingredients. The composition is kept intentionally minimal to let the quality of the Haitian beans shine through. By blending only cacao beans, cane sugar, cacao butter, and high-quality saffron, the maker allows the inherent synergy between the floral saffron and the bright, fruit-forward notes of the cacao to take center stage.
