Description
Made with cacao from Hacienda Azul, Costa Rica—a cacao farm where we have chocolates from other makers, such as Dandelion.
From Letterpress, it’s extra special, because this wonderful American chocolate maker from Los Angeles has unfortunately stopped production (due to an accident involving one of the founders, which means he faces a long recovery). As part of our 10th anniversary celebrations, we managed to acquire a few boxes, making us one of the last places on earth where these beautiful chocolates are still available. A few boxes in total, and then it’s over and done with. Sad, but also wonderful that we were able to enjoy it, because we’ve been impressed ever since we first met this maker. Somewhere in… 2015? We were quite shocked by the price back then; it definitely wasn’t a bar to just buy—but we were so glad we did. A great introduction, and so glad we were able to get our hands on some chocolates for the real chocolate lovers.
Flavor notes described by the makers as: chocolate, sunflower seeds. (Yes, really.)
Ingredients: cocoa, cane sugar.
Contents: 57 grams (why such a strange number… well, that’s because it’s American and they choose to make the bar 2 oz, hence the reason.)
This bar was awarded the Academy of Chocolate Gold Award 2021.
