Chocolate Chips & Chunks

Pala Dark Couverture Baking Chocolate

Made from bean to chocolate at our small chocolate factory based out of Jaipur, India, our vegan chef’s chocolate is excellent for baking and recipes that require even melting. These are Pre crystallized chocolate chunks which are perfect for tempering chocolate. It has a higher cacao % which makes it apt for baking, making ganaches & cremeauxs with an intense cacao hit.

Origin :
Sourced from one single property in Pala, Kerala which has been with the family for over 6 generations. Initially their forefathers used to grow paddy in the watery stretch and coffee (Robusta), pepper, coconut - in the high lands. Eventually the paddy area was later on converted to sugarcane fields. Coffee was converted to a cocoa plantation consisting of both Forastero & Trinitario clones. At present the plantation consists of cocoa, rubber, pepper and a variety of fruiting trees. They follow natural farming with rotation of crops. During season time, cacao pods are collected once every two days and left for fermentation in wooden boxes for 5-6 days post which they do a cut test to check for proper fermentation and then sun dried or solar dryer dried. Then they make their way to our facility in Jaipur.
