Cacao Crunch 80%

The Cacao Crunch 80% is produced by Taza, an American maker based in Somerville, Massachusetts. As a bean-to-bar producer, Taza maintains control over the manufacturing process from raw bean to finished bar, focusing on a specific, traditional approach to texture.

This bar is defined by its stone-ground manufacturing method, which preserves a granular, rustic texture that distinguishes it from highly refined, conched chocolate. The ingredient profile consists of organic cacao beans, organic cane sugar, organic cocoa butter, and organic puffed quinoa. The inclusion of puffed quinoa provides a light, airy crispness that contrasts with the intense, concentrated flavor of the 80% cacao base.

Taza operates with a focus on ethical sourcing, maintaining direct trade relationships to procure their ingredients. The product holds organic certification. Consumers should note that the manufacturing facility processes other ingredients, as the bar may contain traces of tree nuts and sesame seeds.
