Join the chocolate revolution with the Cacao Bar!
It's a blend of our ceremonial cacao from Uganda and Allulose, an all-natural sweetener. After finding these wonderful beans, we knew they would be the perfect flavor profile with their rich chocolate notes and low bitterness. The bar is blended to have a cacao-forward flavor, (not a sugar-laden one), so it tastes like a dark, 85% bar. Wonderfully tasty!
Allulose is classified as a natural 'rare sugar'. Figs, beets, corn, and raisins have small quantities of allulose. As it's a natural sweetener, it has the mouthfeel of sugar but "at least 90% is excreted by the kidneys without being metabolized. This means that in a functional sense, allulose has 95% fewer calories than sucrose and is why the FDA determined in 2019 that it does not need to be listed under total or added sugar." So you get to experience the sweetness, but not the negative health effects of conventional sugars.

Pure Cacao Flavor
Semuliki Forest, Uganda
In western Uganda, lies the town of Bundibugyo, in the foothills of the Rwenzori mountain range. Here, thousands of smallholder farmers are using "absurdly tasty chocolate as a tool for creating local jobs and sustainably improving incomes for smallholder cocoa farmers throughout Uganda". These award winning beans are a real win-win!
Micro Batches
These amazing beans are hand crafted in micro batches to draw out the rich cacao notes. We roast in small batches to ensure consistency, grindthe nibs & allulose to get that silky cacao liquid and then temper in the final mold so you hear that wonderful snap as you break off a piece.
