Inspired by “vaina” which means “vanilla pod” in Spanish, Valrhona's Waina 35% also reveals distinctive notes of farm-fresh milk. Waina 35% is entirely made from the finest organic, fair trade raw materials (Fairtrade / Max Havelaar and Organic Agriculture Certified).

With a slightly beige tone, from the exclusive use of blond cane sugar, Waina 35% delivers intense notes of fresh milk interspersed with cream that combine harmoniously with just the right touch of bourbon vanilla.

This certified chocolate allows chocolate lovers to buy fair trade and organic products, while still attaining the refined levels of quality and taste for which Valrhona is known. By producing a certified chocolate, Valrhona also aims to draw on the high standards of practice required to attain Fair Trade and Organic certification to improve the way they do business throughout their supply chain, all while maintaining their focus on flavour.

As of January 2020, Valrhona is officially B CORP certified company.

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.
