These beans come from the Akesson farm in Madagascar that Cam and Alice visited at the end of 2011. Bertil, the farm’s owner, dries these beans for us with a special method that retains the acidity, resulting in a strong, fruity punch. People often ask how we add fruit flavors to the bar and we explain that these are actually the unique characteristics of the bean coming through. Every harvest brings new flavors and this year we taste strawberries, hints of raspberry jam, and a bright, citrusy finish.
Ingredients: Made with just cocoa beans and sugar; no added cocoa butter, lecithin, or vanilla. Free of soy, dairy, eggs, and gluten, and it is made in a factory that does not process nuts.

Collection description: Perhaps the most famous growing region in the world, northern Madagascar's Sambirano Valley is known for its incredibly fruity cacao and aromatic herbs & spices. Over the past few decades three main plantations have popped up in the area to supply cacao to chocolate makers around the world, as well as some of the world's most valuable botanicals, namely vanilla, ylang-ylang, and essential oil extracts.

Collection title: Soy Free Chocolate
Collection description: These chocolates do not list soy products as a main ingredient. Some of the chocolates say: "may contain traces of soy" where perhaps a very small amount may have come in contact with the food due to shared equipment or facility usage. Each product has icons that indicate whether a product is completely soy free or may contain traces.
