Welcome to the enchanting world of bean-to-bar chocolate, where at KKAOpure delight and indulgence are artfully crafted. Our chocolate journey begins with the finest wholefood ingredients, meticulously chosen to create a symphony of flavours to stimulate your taste buds.
Unlike industrialised chocolates, we take pride in sourcing single-origin cacao beans from Papua New Guinea, each with its own captivating tale of soil, climate, and farming practices, contributing to its unique taste.
Fermentation is where the magic begins, as the beans rest in timber boxes, wrapped in banana leaves, allowing natural yeasts and bacteria to work their wonders for seven days, transforming flavors into a captivating symphony.
After fermentation, the beans are air-dried for an additional seven days, achieving the perfect moisture balance. Then, the roasting process commences, unveiling rich aromas and layers of complex flavors, defining our decadent chocolates.
Into the grinder we go, for 48 hours of finesse, creating a silky smoothness that leaves you enchanted with every bite.
The romance doesn't end there! We allow the chocolate to mature for three weeks, as flavors evolve and intertwine, yielding a truly exceptional taste.
Tempering is our secret, ensuring a lustrous shine and exquisite snap. The dance of heating and cooling ensures the cacao butter is at its most divine.
