OMNOM Omnom Hand Crafted Chocolate is a bean to bar chocolate producer in Iceland. We produce hand crafted chocolate from organic cacao beans, originating from the cacao fields on the island jungles of the Caribbean, South America, Asia and Africa. We source only premium beans with the most interesting flavor profiles. Our beans are hand sorted, roasted with care and precision, cracked, winnowed and grounded down slowly to achieve the ultimate flavor, texture, and consistency. The only other addition is raw cane sugar with the exception of the Icelandic milk that is added to our milk varieties. Omnom’s sole focus is on the quality of our ingredients and the meticulous production of our chocolate. We use cacao beans from different origins in order to discover what makes each region special and unique and then enable each variety to find its´ true potential through our chocolate making process.


THE CHOCOLATE Simplicity is our vision, from creating the recipe to our design. At the same time we envision a product as enjoyable for our taste buds as for our eyes. If it doesn´t please us then there is no reason to be doing it. So we go by our instinct and taste. Having years of experience in fine dining restaurants and pastry shops, we approach our recipe making in the same manner: we experiment until we are happy and then try to perfect that recipe. There have been many “back to the drawing table” moments. But ultimately we want to make something we love passionately and also experiment a little with this genre.

Chocolate is an amazing canvas and making plain dark chocolate, the true essence, is always a revelation. It is just two ingredients: cocoa beans and sugar with an amazing result. This, together with the diversity in flavour of cacao beans between regions, is what drives us. We are experimenting with salt, coffee and smoke and we are excited to apply them to the chocolate making process. We are always trying out new origin beans and never cease to be amazed by their diversity. Omnom Chocolate is a collaboration between Óskar Þórðarson, Kjartan Gíslason, Karl Viggó Vigfússon and André Úlfur Visage.


Our ChocolatE

COFFEE + MILK Ingredients: Organic cacao butter, Raw cane sugar, Icelandic milk powder & organic coffee beans from Jesus Maria farm in Nicaragua. Roasted by: Reykjavík Roasters Taste Notes: Coffee :) Origin: Jesus Maria farm, Nicaragua Type: Arabica, Roast: Light Conching: 96 hours Certs: Rainforrest Alliance Making chocolate with coffee beans has been on top of our to-do list since early days. We are delighted by what we have created. Reykjavík Roasters is run by a passionate bunch of Baristas with a deep love for coffee. Together we share a kinship in our craft making.


Papua New Guinea 70% of cacao beans.

Ingredients: Cacao beans from Papua New Guinea, raw cane sugar & cacao butter. Taste notes: The sophisticated union of nutty leather and smoky tobacco plays with a whisper of burned oak tamed by a buttery bourbon finish. Origin: Papua New Guinea Type: Forastero Roast: Medium Conching: 72 Hours

We´ve been addicted to this from the start. There is something about how the beans get smoked during their drying process that brings out so many interesting flavours like, leather, whiskey, pipe tobacco or even the smell of a horse.


MADAGASCAR 66% of cacao beans.

Ingredients: Organic cacao beans from Madagascar, raw cane sugar & cacao butter. Taste Notes: Nimble forest fruits and festive red berries balanced by an earthiness invigorated by a complex floral tang. Origin: Sambirano Valley, Akesson’s Farm, Madagascar Type: Trinatario Roast: Medium Conching: 72 Hours Certs: Organic & Direct Trade This is what made us fall in love with chocolate. Madagascar 66 % has all those elements that makes us loose sleep over. Smooth mouthfeel, light citrus acidity, sweet red berries and complex bitter finish. Madagascar 66% received Bronze, Silver and Gold in the European competition of the International Chocolate Awards 2014 and 2015 respectively.


DARK MILK + BURNED SUGAR 55% of cacao beans.

Ingredients: Raw cane sugar, organic cacao butter, organic cacao beans from Dominican Republic & Icelandic milk powder. Taste Notes: The sweet union of toffee and caramel infused with a subtle smokiness brightened with a effervescent buttermilk. Origin: La Red, Dominican Republic Type: Trinatario Roast: Medium Conching: 96 Hours Certs: Organic & Direct trade We wanted to do a dark milk bar with hints of caramel. We are currently using the beans from La Red Guaconejo, Dominican Republic. They give us a sweet toffee, notes of cashew and vanilla. Raw cane sugar is caramelised, which gives the bar a subtle smokiness.


MILK OF MADAGASCAR 45% of cacao beans.

Ingredients: Raw cane sugar, organic cacao butter, Icelandic milk powder & organic cacao beans from Madagascar. Taste Notes: Gentle maltiness emboldened by floral aromatics balanced by lush red berries. Origin: Sambirano Valley, Akesson’s Farm, Madagascar Type: Trinatario Roast: Medium Conching: 96 Hours Certs: Organic & Direct trade

The Madagascar bean was our first love, so it was clear to us that we needed to see what it would taste like as a milk chocolate. The red berries stood out so much that we even considered for a while to name the bar “Red Milk”. Milk of Madagascar received Silver in the European competition of the International Chocolate Awards 2015.


SEA SALTED ALMONDS + MILK 45% of cacao beans.

Ingredients: Raw cane sugar, organic cacao butter, Icelandic milk powder, organic cacao beans from Madagascar, sea salt & almonds. Taste notes: Gentle maltiness emboldened by floral aromatics balanced by lush red berries & combined with roasted and sea salted chunks of almonds. Origin: Sambirano Valley, Akesson’s Farm, Madagascar Type: Trinatario Roast: Medium Conching: 96 Hours Certs: Organic & Direct trade This came about after years of work at Dill restaurant, Reykjavík. Sea salted and roasted almonds, was a staple “mise en place” in our kitchen. It was a simple to prepare and worked great with poached fish, raw fennel salad or even turned into a paste and served as a spread on breads or on top of meats. Just for fun, at a late night tempering session, we sprinkled it on top of some Milk of Madagascar. It was gone within seconds of sampling.


LAKKRÍS + SEA SALT Ingredients: Raw cane sugar, 38 % organic cacao butter, Icelandic milk powder, sugar, 3% raw liquorice, Icelandic sea salt from Saltverk & ammonium chloride (E510). Taste notes: Creamy caramelised chocolate spiced with raw Persian liquorice and finished with sprinkles of sea salt, harvested from the West Fjords of Iceland, by Saltverk. Lakkrís is Icelandic for Liquorice. Origin: Dominican Republic Type: Deodorised Roast: Medium Conching: 96 Hours Certs: Organic & Fair trade In Iceland, black salty liquorice and milk chocolate is the most common candy combo. We wanted to capture that flavour and texture in a chocolate bar. Our Lakkrís bar includes a Persian liquorice root powder and caramelised white chocolate and finished off with Lakkrís Sea Salt from Saltverk. Lakkrís + Sea Salt received Gold in the Scandinavian competition of the International Chocolate Awards 2015.


DIRTY BLONDE 36% of cacao beans.

Ingredients: Raw cane sugar, organic cacao butter & Icelandic milk powder. Taste Notes: Sweet cacao silkened with creamy butter & caramel. Origin: Dominican Republic Type: Natural Conching: 96 Hours Certs: Organic & Fair Trade

We were taken back a little when we opened our shipment of cocoa butter. This wasn’t what we ordered, natural cocoa butter was new to us and the idea was to use it for white chocolate. So we experimented and created Dirty Blonde.


THE PACKAGING Packaging is the ďŹ rst visual and last physical contact a brand has with a customer and we wanted it to be a lasting one. Ultimately we aimed to design packaging for Omnom Chocolate that would add value and function to the product. At the same time it had to be aesthetically pleasing and possess an attraction that will in turn elevate it to a must-have item. The packaging unfolds into a serving tray - complete with glacier tops - to enjoy and share, then it collapse back into the envelope box state to protect any uneaten chocolate safely and neatly.

Our packaging won Award of Exellence in the Grapevine Product Design Awards 2015, Bronze in the European design Awards 2015 and a Silver for Best Packaging in the Academy of Chocolate Awards 2015.
