Description
This single origin dark chocolate delivers a pure expression of West African cocoa. It is made using only two ingredients to showcase the unadulterated regional character of the harvest.
Craft & Origin
Dandelion sources cocoa beans directly from the village of Takyikrom in Ghana’s southern Ashanti region. Established in 1950, this small community maintains a deep heritage of sustainable cultivation managed by over three hundred local smallholder farmers. The harvested cocoa undergoes traditional heap fermentation before drying thoroughly on raised mesh beds. Dandelion roasts and mills the lot in San Francisco with organic cane sugar, completely omitting added cocoa butter, lecithin, or vanilla.
Flavor & Texture
A dense texture carries pronounced notes of chocolate cake and café con leche.
How to Use
Allow a small piece to melt slowly on the tongue, or pair alongside a fresh espresso.
