Less Sugar More Cocoa
It’s one of the reasons our chocolate tastes so different. Sugar is the cheapest ingredient, so it’s no illusion that most chocolate seems to taste sweeter and sweeter these days. So, using less sugar in our unique
recipes means that the true flavours of chocolate are revealed, not masked behind excessive sweetness. And you can experience the difference for yourself throughout our summer range.
40% COCOA MILK CHOCOLATE
– our unique recipe with a long lasting cocoa hit, but plenty of classic mellow creaminess.
50% COCOA MILK CHOCOLATE
– takes it a step further with even less sugar and more cocoa but it is still creamy and extremely smooth.
74% COCOA DARK CHOCOLATE
– full of pronounced cocoa flavours but with a subtle fruitiness to perk up the taste buds.
THE PURIST
– takes cocoa worship a step further with rare cocoa from estates around the world, cast into award-winning Purist tablets. The Purist range also features the rare cocoa grown on our own Rabot Estate in St Lucia. But we don’t just grow cocoa there, we’re also helping to revitalise the island’s cocoa sector too through our ENGAGED ETHICS PROGRAMME – it guarantees a market for farmers’ entire cocoa crop at prices 30% above the market price, as well as technical and other benefits. This has kick-started renewed interest in cocoa growing amongst our neighbouring farmers, leading to the creation of at least 100 new agricultural jobs already.
