The Ingredients (And Why They’re Here)
We believe ingredients should have a purpose. And excellent character.
Cacao Nibs - Ivory Coast
Our cacao comes from the Ivory Coast, known for producing beans with the classic, rich, chocolate-forward flavor people actually expect when they bite into chocolate.
Not fruity confusion.
Not acidic surprise.
Chocolate.
Best yet, all our cacao and butter are ethically sourced and fair-trade.
Cocoa Butter - Peru
We use organic, deodorized cocoa butter from Peru.
Its job is to create that silky melt and clean snap.
It performs admirably.
Sweeteners – The Winning Trio
After hundreds of batches and extensive experimentation, we found the combination that works:
- Allulose – Provides bulk and a natural sugar-like profile with zero glycemic impact. It behaves beautifully.
- Pure Sucralose – Used in very small amounts for precision sweetness. Despite all the misinformation about it, research consistently shows that it is not only safe but elicits zero blood sugar and insulin response. It remains widely used and at the tiny amounts used here, it performs exactly as intended.
- Pure Acesulfame Potassium (Ace-K) – Widely used in sugar-free beverages. We use an extremely small amount to round out sweetness and enhance overall flavor balance.
Together, they create a sweetness profile that tastes real. Not artificial. Not metallic. Not suspicious.
And most importantly:
Zero glycemic or insulinogenic impact from the sweeteners.
Milk Powder (For Milk Chocolate)
Our milk chocolate contains organic, steroid-free whole milk powder.
Yes, milk contains natural sugars.
That’s why our milk chocolate contains 3 net carbs per one-ounce serving.
Real milk. Real flavor. No apologies.
Our dark chocolate contains 2 net carbs per serving — naturally occurring from the cacao itself.
Sunflower Lecithin
We are soy-free.
We use sunflower lecithin for smooth flow and proper texture.
Pure Vanillin
Because chocolate deserves to smell like chocolate.
Gluten-Free
All ingredients are certified gluten-free.
Therefore, our chocolate is gluten-free ;)
