Milk Chocolate 41% Caoba – 1 lb. bag of discos
Caoba is a smooth and fluid dark milk chocolate with enticing cacao aroma and notes of caramel and nut. These flavors are the result of higher than normal cacao content, made with only premium Venezuelan cacao, among the highest of any milk chocolate on the market.
Caoba melts easily and is recommended for all tempering applications. Bakers and pastry chefs can use for modeling, enrobing, glazes, sorbet or a light chocolate mousse. Pair with Muscat, Sweet Riesling, Sherry, Semillon or complex red wine like Bordeaux or a nice Spanish Rioja.
Made from fairly traded and ethically grown cacao beans
All El Rey chocolate is made in a ISO 9001 certified factory, meeting the highest possible standards of quality, safety, and health
El Rey chocolate is suited for a wide range of applications, including baking, enrobing, ganaches, molding, or just eating out of hand!
Since its founding in 1929, El Rey has understood that great chocolate originates on the farm. It is for this reason that we long ago committed ourselves to becoming a world class agribusiness, painstakingly monitoring the entire process from bean to bar.
We’re a family business, one of the oldest chocolate manufacturers in Venezuela, and we have built our reputation on principles of uncompromising quality, team effort, and constant technological innovation.
El Rey sources 100% of its beans from Aprocao, a democratically run famer’s coop that we founded
In addition to sourcing, El Rey maintains a strong commitment to Venezuelan farmers, in the form of;
Paying 60% above international cacao bean prices
Providing training programs for farmers
Ensuring beans are grown for maximum quality and farmer profitability
