KAMILI PISTACHIO PRALINE

A Pure dark bar with pistachio praline insert from Bronte from Sicily. A crazy alliance between our fruity dark chocolate and our praline, very rich in pistachio and not very sweet.

This bar is made in small quantities to guarantee its freshness and intensity. In PLAQ praline, always few ingredients but the best. And little sugar for more taste.

5 INGREDIENTS. NOTHING ELSE.

Kamili organic cocoa beans from Morogoro Tanzania (76%) and unrefined organic cane sugar from São Paulo Brazil (24%), pistachio praline insert: organic DOP pistachios from Bronte Sicily (68%), unrefined organic cane sugar from São Paulo Brazil (22%), natural organic cocoa butter and traceable origin varying according to harvest (10%), fleur de sel from South-West France. Without lecithin.

“Kamili” means “Absolutely” in Swahili. In the heart of Tanzania, in the Kilombero Valley west of the Udzungwa Mountains National Reserve, cocoa trees are grown. This fertile agricultural region, with its hot and humid climate, has been cultivating Kamili cocoa since 2015.

The beans are grown by 4,000 independent farms, each averaging 2 hectares, cultivated in agroforestry, with 1,200 of them being organic certified.

Kamili cocoa beans are a blend of Trinitario beans, a hybrid variety resulting from the mix of Criollo and Forastero beans, and Neo-Nacional beans. Kamili cocoa is round and tangy, with notes of red fruits (cherries, berries, and plums) and floral hints reminiscent of violet or rose.

Since 2020, we have used Kamili cocoa for our 76% chocolate, which is particularly suitable for cooking, in our pastries, and for combining with dried fruits in our coated dried fruits and rocks.

We had the opportunity to participate in the September 2022 harvest, during which we met Simran Bindra, the founder, and her entire team.

Once fermented and dried, the beans are packaged in 62-kilo bags before being shipped to Antwerp to our partner Silva Cacao and then delivered to our Manufacture.

Each bag is individually transformed into chocolate following the Bean-to-Bar philosophy, in "micro batches," to stay as close as possible to the aromatic specificities that can vary from one batch to another.

The beans are tasted, sorted, roasted at low temperatures, mixed with unrefined cane sugar, stone-conched for 3 days, and then rested for 3 weeks.

The resulting pure chocolate is then melted, molded, and packaged into bars, or used to coat our dried fruits and rocks, or in pastries (fondant, soft cookies, etc.).
