These single origin chocolate bars are made with Swiss chocolate produced with cacao beans from Bolivia, the Dominican Republic, and Madagascar. The organic Dominican Republic chocolate has notes of black tea and mild tobacco. The cacao from Bolivia grows wild and the ripened pods are transported by horses or dugout canoes; the chocolate has hints of lemon and grapefruit. The chocolate from Madagascar has tasting notes of fruit, roasted hazelnut, and forest berries.
For an added treat, pair these with the Single Origins Collection of bonbons. I especially like to try the bar first, savor the creaminess of the bonbon, then go back to the pure flavor of the chocolate. But they all taste delicious in whatever order you eat them. You can select a 9-piece box of bonbons with a set of 3 chocolate bars below.
(Note: These are also available in a Tasting Bar size.)

Take a journey to Peru, Madagascar, Bolivia, Tanzania, and the Dominican Republic as you taste chocolates made with cacao beans from each of these countries. This set of six tasting pieces from five countries that produce fine quality cacao was inspired by my recent trip to Paris, where I bought a similar collection of chocolates. It’s an ideal way to experience the many different flavor notes that emerge during the process of growing, fermenting, roasting, and transforming cacao beans into chocolate.
For the holidays, the Chocolate Tasting Journey (available soon) will be wrapped in a handmade, festive cloth gift bag. (Let me know in the Order Notes if you would prefer a decorative blue cloth gift bag instead of a Christmas-themed design.)

I am a huge fan of chocolate bars—my own as well as bars crafted by a variety of bean-to-bar companies using cacao beans from around the world. These are what I turn to when I need my daily chocolate fix, and I especially enjoy trying different bars.
This is a gift that can keep on giving after all the pies, cakes, and other holiday sweets are gone and forgotten. Each set of 5 bars will be wrapped in a handmade, festive cloth gift bag (while supplies last). If you’d prefer a different mix of these bars, let me know in the Order Notes.

I’m loving this Madagascar chocolate made by Felchlin in Switzerland. It’s delicious on its own and with other flavors that complement the unique taste of chocolate made with cacao beans grown in Madagascar. Crispy pieces with a hint of mango add a pop of color and a satisfying crunch. Pepper and chocolate? Surprisingly, yes!
The Salt ‘n’ Pepper version includes two kinds of peppercorns grown in Madagascar: a wild pepper called Voatsiperifery with floral and citrus notes, and Baies Rose pink peppercorns—not a true pepper but a berry related to cashews with a delicate peppery flavor. I couldn’t help adding a third pepper into the mix: Kampot Red Pepper, a rare pepper grown only in a specially-designated region of Cambodia. Its sweet and spicy notes add another flavor dimension. A sprinkling of Fleur de Sel from the Camargue region of France enhances the overall experience.
(Note: These are also available in a Tasting Bar size. The three peppers are from Curio Spice, a local, woman-owned Certified B Corporation in Cambridge.)
