The Story of this Bar
Magical chocolate. Made with simplicity and creativity.
This is what an elegant milk chocolate should be. A rich darkness, with no compromise on the milk content. This isn’t a sweet tasting chocolate, neither is it a bitter tasting chocolate – rather it is a beautifully creamy cacao-forward tasting milk chocolate.
There are always choices to make as a chocolate maker. And what we wanted to create with this chocolate was a unique 60% milk chocolate bar that was truly surprising, whilst striping away any and all complexity and overt sweetness.
The questions we asked ourselves about this bar in the beginning, before starting the research, was… “Why shouldn’t a milk chocolate be elevated by reimagining it?”, and “Why do other so called ‘dark milk chocolates’ always remove the milk content and retain the sugar, to increase the cacao?” We know there is a natural sweetness to milk, so we researched to find the perfect balance … working to keep the milk content high, whilst reducing the sugar, and increasing the cacao content.
We chose the word “darksome” for this chocolate because it is an old English poetical term to describe something that is getting dark, or has some darkness to it, similar to the word dusk, coming just before full nightfall. And this chocolate falls into that description, of having some darkness, but being balanced by the creaminess of the milk. Beautiful by design.
We’re innovative chocolate makers.
It’s what we believe in.
