Blond is a 29% caramelized white chocolate bar from the Swiss producer Villars, offering distinct notes of creamy milk, toasted caramel, and biscuit.
Blond is crafted by Villars, a bean-to-bar producer based in Fribourg, Switzerland. With a history of chocolate making in the Alpine region, the producer maintains traditional processes while focusing on the specific characteristics of their ingredients. This bar represents a shift from conventional dark or milk varieties, highlighting the potential of caramelized white chocolate.
The bar contains 29% cacao and is defined by its toasted, golden profile. The texture is smooth and creamy, a result of the blend featuring cocoa butter, whole milk powder, caramelized milk powder, and whey powder. Flavor notes include milk, caramel, and biscuit, achieved through the careful caramelization process of the milk components. It has been recognized for this profile, earning International Chocolate Awards World Silver and DACH Gold in 2016.
Villars incorporates Rainforest Alliance certification for this product, ensuring the cocoa is sourced in adherence to sustainable farming standards. The recipe is finished with natural vanilla flavour and soya lecithin, producing a consistent, approachable bar that weighs 100 grams.
