Cardamom 70%

Svenska Kakao is a dedicated bean-to-bar factory based in Sweden, operating with a commitment to the craft of traditional chocolate making. Unlike industrial producers that rely on additives, they manage their own production from bean to final bar, ensuring complete control over the development of flavor and texture.

The Cardamom 70% bar is an evocative study in spice and terroir. Crafted from a blend of Criollo, Trinitario, and Nacional cacao beans sourced from the Duarte region of the Dominican Republic, the chocolate offers a robust foundation for its unique flavor profile. Its taste is distinctly reminiscent of a Swedish cardamom bun, delivering a warm, aromatic experience that balances the intense, earthy depth of 70% cacao with the bright, citrusy notes of the spice. The texture is pure and unadulterated, intentionally crafted without the use of lecithin, vanillin, or substitute vegetable fats.

By focusing on a minimal ingredient list, cacao beans, cane sugar, and cardamom, Svenska Kakao allows the specific characteristics of the Duarte region to shine. This 50-gram bar represents a thoughtful approach to flavor pairing, where the maker prioritizes the raw intensity of the cacao while introducing culinary influences that feel both nostalgic and sophisticated.
