Made with fine aroma cacao from Peru and whole milk from the Ecuadorian highlands, this 38% single-origin milk chocolate couverture offers an exceptionally fresh and delicate expression of milk chocolate. Fresh milk and smooth butterscotch lead into fine caramel and vanilla notes, balanced by a light acidity and a clean, creamy finish.

Summer Shipping: 

At above 26°C, cocoa butter in chocolate products may start melting, and recrystallize as white streaks or marks on the chocolate's surface.  This phenomenon is called 'fat bloom'.  While it may not have the perfect appearance, bloomed chocolates are safe to eat and use in recipes.

During summer months when the temperature is relatively warm, we advise adding cold packaging to your shipment in order to minimize the risk of melting.  While we are careful and diligent in maintaining the temperature of your package, we unfortunately cannot guarantee the products in the cold packaging will not be affected by unusually warm weather and irregular transit time.
