ACADEMY OF CHOCOLATE 2024 SILVER AWARD
Bean-To-Bar Flavoured Dark Chocolate Bar

This dark chocolate bar is the perfect product of a cultural choc. French heritage is mixed with a New Zealand delicacy to create an explosion of flavour in silky caramel.

An initial hint of Manuka honey notes are followed by an amazing cognac sweetness. Ooh lƠ lƠ, sacrƩ bleu!

What the judges said:
ā€œā€¦a harmonious blend of honey bourbon caramel sweetness, dark chocolate, and warm spice notes, creating a well-balanced and satisfying flavour profile. The cognac aroma and flavour are distinct but not overpowering, complementing the smooth and rich filling... The dairy-free caramel is creamy and works surprisingly well, while the chocolate offers a robust cocoa flavour with a smooth melt.ā€

Bean-To-Bar Flavoured Milk Chocolate Bar

Our award-winning 48% milk chocolate is infused with organic oolong tea from Zealong Tea Estate in the Waikato, the only commercial tea estate in Aotearoa New Zealand.

We combine the tea’s soft floral notes and gentle tannins with exceptional Pacific-sourced cacao beans and organic New Zealand milk powder for a smooth, creamy finish.

The result is a refined pairing of New Zealand-grown tea and carefully crafted chocolate.
