Grenada 65% Dark Chocolate – 2kg

Grenada 65% dark chocolate is a powerful, elegant couverture with character, made from 51% shelled cocoa beans grown exclusively in Grenada, an island renowned for the aromatic richness of its cocoa. Produced in Switzerland to the highest quality standards, this couverture chocolate is designed for artisan chocolatiers, patissiers and food professionals looking for a product that is authentic, versatile and expressive.

With a minimum cocoa content of 65%, Grenada 65% is a well-balanced dark chocolate, rich in aroma and full of cocoa power without excessive bitterness. Its deep taste, subtly fruity and delicately woody, makes it an ingredient of choice for fine, refined creations. It reveals all its complexity both when tasted raw and when incorporated into technical preparations: ganaches, entremets, tablettes, glazes, mousses or coatings.

The uniqueness of this chocolate lies in the unique origin of its beans. Grenada, located in the Caribbean, offers a rich terroir and tropical climate ideal for growing cocoa trees with intense aromas. The cocoa from these trees develops notes of ripe red fruit, roasted nuts and light floral hints, giving Grenada 65% its unique taste signature. These beans are shelled and carefully roasted, then processed using a gentle Swiss process that respects the natural flavors of the cocoa.

This chocolate is made from only four carefully selected ingredients:

• Shelled cocoa beans (51%)

• Sugar

• Cocoa butter

• Natural Madagascar vanilla (organically grown)

This choice of a short, pure formula guarantees a clean taste, with no additives or texturing agents. Natural vanilla subtly softens the intensity of the cocoa, while supporting its long finish.

Grenada 65% is distinguished by its controlled fluidity, ideal for molding hollow bodies, coating pralines or candies, or creating smooth, stable ganaches. It can also be used to create intense mousses, chocolate inserts or surface decorations with a glossy finish after tempering. Its versatility will appeal to professionals who want perfect results every time.

This chocolate is also certified Halal, Kosher Parve and Kosher Parve OU, meeting precise dietary requirements and making it more widely available, particularly in production for export or specialized sales.
