GALAPAGOS ORANGE & SALT DARK CHOCOLATE BY TO’AK 28 G
$8.00
Tax included
Using the Italian confiserie technique frutta candita, we cook orange skins with sugar. They are then cut into small cubes, covered in cacao butter, and integrated into the chocolate along with salt crystals. Our friends at Galapagos Safari Camp harvest the sea salt and oranges by hand on Santa Cruz Island. This bar of exclusive To’ak chocolate is perfect for sampling this rare delight.
To’ak chocolates are made from some of the rarest cocoa beans in the world “Ancient Nacional”, which traces its lineage back more than 5000 years. Ecuador is home to the first known cacao trees on earth. In the 1800’s Ecuador was producing, what was considered by European chocolatiers the finest cacao available. This ancient variety of cacao, “Ancient Nacional”, was thought to be extinct until recently. Some healthy trees were found still growing wild in the Piedra de Plata region of Ecuador.
