They start by toasting hazelnuts to perfection. They then combine their OKO Caribe origin cacao to produce their version of Nutella. No palm oil, refined sugars or anything like that in our version! Molded into cups, they are then covered in more chocolate all around. Imagine if Nutella grew up, left home, and decided to start an eco-friendly company instead of going into the family business. Dairy-free, vegan, and 100% amazing.
Each order brings four cups for the perfect sweet treat.

Exquisito Chocolate founder Carolina Qijano, is known as the “Chocolate Empress”. While she was on a business trip to Paris for her Wall Street consulting job, she tasted a bar of delicious life-changing chocolate and spent the next two years trying to re-create it in her NYC studio a — all while still working her demanding job on Madison Avenue. In 2014, after hundreds of recipe trials, she moved to Miami to start a chocolate factory and fulfill her chocolate dreams. The rest, as they say, is history.
I've never heard of umbu before. Not sure how I'd like the fruit but it works well with the chocolate. Tart and sweet pieces of fruit in the chocolate.
