Fact: Daintree Estates were the pioneers of the world’s first origin chocolate crafted from Australian grown cocoa.
The cocoa in every bite of our scrumptious Australian origin chocolate is hand harvested by Australian farmers from cocoa plantations near the legendary Daintree Rainforest region of Far North Queensland. Every bite you take supports Aussie farmers, their families and local communities.
The cocoa in our Australian 52% Dark Milk Chocolate flavoured bars is hand harvested twice a year from numerous private farms. The sun ripened pods in hues of red, orange, yellow and brown are first split open and the purple beans (seeds) removed by hand, The beans are first naturally fermented for 5-7 days, then dried in the warm tropical sunshine. The dried beans are carefully roasted to perfection by our artisans, and then cracked and winnowed to separate the outer shell from the now dark bean kernel and break them into small pieces called nibs. Our roasted Australian cocoa nibs are ground up in a conche for 24 hours or longer and then mixed with Australian raw sugar, sunflower lecithin, vanilla and additional cocoa butter to adjust the mouth-feel of the final couverture which is then poured into our iconic 80g moulds and immediately packed to lock in the irresistable flavour for your enjoyment.
Did you know: There are around 40 beans in each cocoa pod, of which about two-thirds go into each 80g bar of our delicious 52% Dark Milk flavoured chocolate bars.
Tasting Notes: Sophisticated & luscious with tangy sweetness that will have you wondering how it all disappeared so fast.
The 52% Dark Milk chocolate base in this bar is made from the same quality Australian origin couverture used by some of Australia’s leading chocolatiers, chefs and award winning restaurants.
Chocolate is naturally gluten free.
52% high cocoa content dark milk chocolate
Cocoa is widely recognised recognised as a superfood, loaded with powerful antioxidants and naturally high in minerals such as magnesium and potassium. Many of the health benefits of cocoa can be lost in chocolate due to the presence of white sugar, non-cocoa fats and other additives used as shortcuts to appealing flavours, sweetness and mouth feel. When choosing a milk chocolate, make a healther choice by choosing one with a high cocoa content. Most milk chocolate bars contain only around 20% cocoa. Our signature Dark Milk chocolate contains a very high 52% of cocoa solids. Chocolate products made with raw sugar will also generally be better than those made with white sugar.
