About This Bar
This lush, rich, chocolate experience has base notes of coconut creaminess and highlights of bright strawberry juiciness. GNF love making chocolate with flavorful fruits, and by blending organic strawberries with coconut we created a delicious, creamy, rich, uncompromising vegan milk chocolate.
Yes, you can absolutely have a creamy milk chocolate experience with dairy-free milk! As with all foods, flavor relies on the quality and choice of ingredients and how you combine them, and this chocolate is no exception.
After searching for years, GNF found a coconut milk that tastes great and has no additional drying agent additives- enter JOI's coconut powder that is "Just One Ingredient." Turning coconut milk from liquid to powder is challenging, and an agent is needed to prevent the fatty liquid from clumping together. Typically, companies add maltodextrin or starch during the process to prevent clumping; however, JOI's process uses the coconut meat itself as the carrier so that their coconut milk powder is 100% pure coconut... and oh so tasty!
To deepen the flavor and make this chocolate cane sugar-free they sweetened it with organic coconut sugar and juicy, organic strawberries. Coconut sugar is made from the flower blossom sap of the coconut palm, and it has a deep, browned, butterscotchy taste. For brightness and balance we added scoop after scoop of sweet organic strawberries until we tasted the harmony of berry-bright acidity and jammy notes.
Since our Esmeraldas cacao has jam and dark fruit flavor notes it was the perfect bean to use in crafting this berry delicious (😁) chocolate. Complemented by GNF freshly-pressed Esmeraldas cocoa butter, this bar is an undeniably delicious and fresh take on vegan milk chocolate.
