Milk Hazelnut

Based in the Netherlands, Tony's Chocolonely is a prominent industrial producer with a distinct focus on social impact. They have become a globally recognized name by combining large-scale production with a mission to influence global cocoa supply chains, particularly in West Africa. Unlike smaller artisan brands, they operate with the goal of shifting the standard for the entire chocolate industry.

This Milk Hazelnut bar follows a classic European profile, offering a rich and creamy dairy milk base with a 32 percent cocoa content. At 180 grams, the bar is notably substantial and features 10 percent hazelnut inclusions that provide a satisfying crunch. The texture is designed for a velvety melt, utilizing soya lecithin as an emulsifier while notably avoiding the use of PGPR.

The ethics of production are central to this bar's identity. The cocoa beans are sourced from Côte d'Ivoire and Ghana, and the product carries the Fair Trade certification. To further their commitment to transparency, the packaging also features the Tony's Open Chain seal, highlighting their collaborative approach to sourcing and their work with cooperatives in West Africa.
