Baru is a Brazilian nut that tastes more like peanuts but is a seed of a fruit. It is rarely known outside of Brazil and even within Brazil many people have never tasted it. It is foraged by communities who patiently wait for the fruit to fall from the tree before cracking and roasting it. Dark chocolate topped with baru nuts.

Maker

Mission Chocolate

Mission Chocolate is a bean to bar chocolate maker based in São Paulo, Brazil. Arcelia Gallardo the founder/maker has previously trained as a chocolatier, opened a chocolate shop in California, and also trained as a bean to bar maker at Dandelion Chocolate. Arcelia has taken strides to expand the bean to bar movement in Brazil, working with farmers on process, and also helped initiate the Association of Bean to Bar Brasil Makers.

Cacao Region

Bahia, Brazil

Bahia is one of the largest states of Brazil, located in the east, along the Atlantic coast. Once a monarchial stronghold dominated by slave-centric agriculture and ranching, Bahia is now a domestic manufacturing center and the focal point of Brazil’s re-entry into the fine cacao market. The region was once the largest cacao producer in the country, so reputed that a portion of southern Bahia was nicknamed “Cacao Coast.” Unfortunately, bioterrorism in the 1980’s devastated the country’s crop over the course of just a decade. In the early 2010’s, a number of family farms took it upon themselves to revitalize the local fine flavor cacao industry, which continues to grow annually.

Cacao Estate

Fazenda Camboa

Fazenda Camboa is one of the largest producers of organic cacao beans all of Brazil, and is the biggest in the southern state of Bahia. Fazenda is Portuguese for “estate,” and the Carvalho family began taking over cacao estates such as Fazenda Camboa back in 1942. Since then, they’ve dealt with the devastation of witch’s broom fungus destroying almost all of Brazil’s cocoa crop back in the 90’s, and completely reinvented their approach to farming. Camboa now includes several thriving species of cacao, including some native Amazonian varietals, all grown in organic and natural conditions.

Mission does great work

This bar was fun to eat and nutty as one might expect. Get yourself one if you haven't yet.

Everything Mission Makes is Good

Whole baru nuts are sparsely sprinkled on the back of this thin, dark bar. They were perfectly roasted and the chocolate is dark and rich, bordering on bitter, only wish the nuts were chopped up and more evenly distributed!

Unique Bar

We loved the unique inclusion of Baru nut in this bar. The chocolate had a lovely berry-like flavor, however we wish the chocolate bar itself had been a little thicker. It was kind of on the thin side.

Excellent variety, good prices, prompt shipping

I bought a large batch of Mission Chocolate bars. Bar and Cocoa is one of the few that carries the product. The other merchant wants a $50 flat fee for shipping. B&C shipping was $5 for two days delivery. Great service.
