Forget sunshine in your pocket go for sunshine in your chocolate bar. A refreshing tropical zinger, calamansi, adds a boost of citrus to your deep and velvety dark chocolate. No matter if it's La Niña or El Niño, it's always a perfectly balmy summer with this sweet and tangy combo.

Calamansi is a small citrus fruit that is ubiquitous in the Philippines often used in beverages, sauces, and squeezed over dishes to add a zesty flavor.

Maker

Theo and Philo

Theo  Philo is a chocolate maker based in the Philippines. Theo and Philo prides on using local ingredients. It all started from Philo’s love of baking, and desire to use chocolate. He would always scour for special and different types of chocolate. Growing up in the Philippines, he was surprised no one was making bean to bar chocolate, after he first encounter with single estate chocolate. Cacao is grown in the Philippines but it was mostly used to make hot chocolate and exported. That’s when the decided to experiment with local cacao and see what good can come about! Along with their single origin plain bars, they have a collection of flavored bars that are inspired by the local Filipino cuisine. Theo is short for Theobroma Cacao, and Philo is derived from the Greek word which means love. Their goal is to create masterpieces with each bite of their chocolate, which is carefully crafted to capture the bountiful heritage of the Philippines.

Cacao Region

Davao, Philippines

One of the smallest big cities in the Philippines, Davao City is affectionately known as both the cacao and durian capital of the country. In fact, often you'll see both fruit trees growing on the same plantations within city limits, yet due to large soil & cacao varietal differences, you'll find that the resulting chocolates taste nothing alike. The region is so widespread that there's even a citywide speed limit that makes a trip from one end to the other take nearly two hours without traffic!

Velvet and Zing!

I’ve always enjoyed the flavors of chocolate and orange together. But the unusual subtle citrus of the calamansi adds a particular zing to the fluidity of the dark chocolate. Just the right amount for a perfect balance of tart and sweet.

Unusual and tasty

Theo & Philo is the place to go for outstanding chocolate with new and interesting inclusions. The calamansi is a much tarter than orange, but a similarly fine combination with dark chocolate. The rind adds wonderful texture.

I've never had kalamansi and was curious to give this bar a try for the sheer novelty of it. I love the combination of subtly sweet dark chocolate and the zesty kalamansi. The texture of the dried rind isn't my favourite, but it doesn't take away from the otherwise wonderful taste of the bar.
