CRUNCHY PUFFS IN EVERY BITE

Puffed amaranth has a light, crispy bite and a nutty flavor. We fold these puffs into our vanilla bean-infused dark chocolate, crafting a crunchy bar with a nostalgic feel. We make this bar with organic, Smithsonian Bird-Friendly certified cacao from Zorzal Cacao in the Dominican Republic. Zorzal is the first cocoa grower to receive this official Bird Friendly™ certification. At this 1,019-acre bird reserve in the heart of the Dominican Republic, cacao is grown through agroforestry, planted alongside native trees that are home to crucial bird and wildlife species, such as the Bicknell's Thrush. Over 70% of the Zorzal reserve is designated as “forever wild", meaning the forest is preserved and not used for agriculture. Cacao meets conservation!

Olivia U. ★★★★★

The crunch of those puffed amaranth bits is so satisfying that I actually slowed down to savor the texture, and the vanilla bean really comes through in the dark chocolate. It's got that old-fashioned candy-bar feel, but tastes way more sophisticated.
