From The Farm
From The Farm: The "from the farm" stage in chocolate-making begins with harvesting cacao pods from cacao trees. Farmers carefully hand-pick ripe pods and split them open to extract the cacao beans, which are surrounded by a sweet, white pulp. These beans are then fermented for several days to develop the rich flavors associated with chocolate. After fermentation, the beans are sun-dried to reduce moisture, ensuring they are ready for storage and transport. Once dried, the cacao beans are bagged and shipped to chocolate makers worldwide, marking the start of their transformation into the final chocolate products we love.
Inside the Bittersweet Factory
Inside Bittersweet Factory: In a craft chocolate factory, the process begins with roasting cacao beans to develop their complex flavors. The roasted beans are cracked and winnowed to separate the nibs from the shells. The nibs are ground into cocoa mass, a thick paste that forms the base of chocolate. Sugar and other ingredients are then added, and the mixture is refined for smoothness. Next, it undergoes conching, a process of continuous mixing to achieve a rich, velvety texture and balanced flavor. The chocolate is tempered to ensure a glossy finish and crisp snap, then poured into molds, cooled, and carefully packaged.
To The Customer
To The Customer: The packaging process for handcrafted chocolate begins with selecting elegant, eco-friendly materials that protect the product while showcasing its artisanal quality. Each bar is carefully wrapped, often by hand, to ensure a perfect presentation. Labels or inserts are added, detailing the story, origin, and ingredients of the chocolate. The wrapped bars are then placed into sturdy shipping boxes, often with padding to prevent damage during transit. Attention is given to every detail, ensuring the package reflects the care put into crafting the chocolate. Finally, the parcels are shipped to customers, delivering a thoughtful and indulgent experience straight to their doorsteps.
