How to use

Consume plain in small pieces to appreciate the concentrated cocoa aroma and bitter-sweet balance. For baking, chop or grate as required by the recipe; the high cocoa percentage enhances chocolate depth in cakes, brownies, mousses, and ganaches. To melt, break into small pieces and use a gentle double-boiler or short bursts in a microwave at low power, stirring frequently to maintain even melting and avoid scorching. When pairing, serve small squares alongside a small cup of black coffee or a glass of fortified wine to compare aroma and intensity.

Usage recommendations

Store in a cool, dry place away from strong odors and direct sunlight, ideally between 15–20°C and at moderate humidity. Because of the high cocoa content, consume in moderation if you are sensitive to bitter flavors or caffeine.
