The World's Top Dark Chocolate Bars 2024

International Chocolate Awards 2024 - Bronze

Origin: Piura region, Northwest Peru | Cacao: 70% | Bean Type: Piuran Criollo Hybrid

Cacaosuyo’s name is synonymous with elevating regional cacao traditions to world-class standards, and this bar is no exception—meticulously farmed, fermented, dried, and made into chocolate at origin with full traceability and ethical sourcing.

Flavor Profile:
Expect an elegant, fruit-forward character reminiscent of fresh citrus and tropical orchard fruits. A gentle tartness mingles with sweet floral notes—think jasmine or honeysuckle—then transitions into a smooth finish with hints of almond and baked apples. The texture is silky and luxurious, with excellent melt and restrained bitterness from the 70% cacao content.

Why It's Special:

  • Regional distinction: Piura has long been celebrated for producing some of Peru’s most desirable and exotic cacao beans, and this bar showcases its terroir to perfection.

  • Transparent sourcing: Every bar can be traced back to the farms that grew the cacao, ensuring fair prices for farmers, sustainable agricultural methods, and environmental stewardship.

  • Minimalist craftsmanship: The bar contains only cacao mass, sugar, and cocoa butter—no lecithin, no vanilla, just pure, refined flavor.

Tasting Notes:

  • Bright mandarin peel

  • Tropical lychee

  • Subtle floral sweetness

18 ° C in its original packaging

Nos chocolatiers s'abstiennent fièrement d'utiliser des stabilisateurs ou des conservateurs artificiels dans leurs produits, ce qui rend leurs créations plus sensibles à la température par rapport aux autres chocolats haut de gamme.

Pour garantir une expérience gustative optimale, il est conseillé de conserver nos chocolats dans un endroit frais et sec où la température oscille entre 16°C et 18°C. Nous vous conseillons de ne pas réfrigérer nos chocolats, car cela pourrait provoquer une cristallisation du sucre due à l'augmentation de l'humidité, altérant ainsi leur texture et leur saveur.

Au contraire, s'il est conservé à des températures trop élevées, le beurre de cacao peut se séparer et former un film blanc à la surface du chocolat. Cette perte de beurre de cacao peut entraîner un dessèchement du chocolat et, par conséquent, une altération potentielle de sa saveur. Vos pratiques de conservation réfléchies contribueront à préserver l'intégrité de nos délicieux chocolats.
