Some diabetic consumers eat and enjoy the bitterness, but for those who cannot tolerate the bitterness, this is ideal for use in hot chocolate drinks, champorado, baking and other desserts.
  • How many pieces of Unsweetened Chocolate are in a 250-gram bottle?
    A jar contains 250g of Unsweetened Dark Chocolate (not including the bottle's weight). That is about 32-38 pcs. depending on the chocolate nuggets' assorted shapes and sizes.
  • How many pieces of Unsweetened Chocolate for 1 (one) cup of hot chocolate drink?
    Usual ratio for a hot chocolate drink is 1 nugget per 1 cup of water. Depending on your desired taste, you can use up to 2 nuggets per cup, especially if the nuggets are small.
  • Do I need to boil or cook this for a cup of hot chocolate drink?
    Yes, boiling the chocolate is better as it brings out the flavor of the cacao at its best. However, if you are on the rush, you may also use it instantly by putting it in a freshly boiled cup of water or in your very hot cup of coffee. The chocolate easily melts!
  • Is this fermented cacao or unfermented?
    Our chocolates are made from LIGHTLY-FERMENTED organic cacao beans. IN TERMS OF TASTE, fermented cacao is better than unfermented cacao. IN TERMS OF NUTRITIONAL QUALITY, unfermented cacao is better than fermented cacao. Fermentation reduces the natural phytic acid in the cacao beans. Phytic acid is the protective substance found in nuts, beans and seeds. This substance prevents the human body from absorbing the minerals found in the cacao beans. Unfermented cacao, on the other hand, retains the anti-oxidant flavanoids of the cacao which are eliminated during fermenting. For us to offer a highly-nutritious dark chocolate with a great taste, LIGHT FERMENTATION does the job.
  • Is it creamy if melted or gritty (grainy, sandy)?
    Our Premium Unsweetened Chocolate is made with super fine texture and has a high export quality. It is purely organic and made with 100% cacao, with MINIMUM REMNANTS as proof of its purity. It is therefore rich, creamy and aromatic when you make a hot chocolate.
