70% dark chocolate made with beans from Punta Gorda (Peini), Toledo district, Belize. Since 2016, Peini Plantation has been growing its own cocoa on 96 hectares of land. They also buy cocoa from local farmers through their sister company, Belize Cacao Trade.
In collaboration with the Na'Lu'Um Cocoa Institute, an association of local Maya cocoa farmers, thousands of free saplings have been provided to these farmers, along with training and microfinance support. Thanks to this initiative, around 204 cocoa-producing families now have a steady and reliable market to sell their beans at a fair price, supporting them in expanding their farming activities and improving their livelihoods.
The post-harvest process takes place in a centralised facility. The beans are fermented for 7 days in boxes made of Santa Maria wood. After fermentation, the beans are moved by wheelbarrow to drying tables. The beans are left on the wooden drying tables and are well raked until they achieve the right appearance.
Ingredients are of organic origin NL-BIO-01.

Krak Chocolate is the venture of bean-to-bar chocolate maker Mark Schimmel. While most chocolatiers and confectioners use melted factory chocolate, Mark manages the entire process himself.
By selecting cocoa beans from each harvest year of special origin, and roasting and rolling the chocolate, he creates unique flavours that you wouldn't find in the usual supermarket chocolate bars.
