Cashew chocolate with roasted peanut.

A cashew chocolate base, softer and nuttier than dark, with roasted peanut adding crunch and a light savoury note. The most approachable of the nut range.
The difference is made at fermentation — the stage that determines most of the final flavour. Most producers buy beans already fermented by someone else; BALAVA runs this stage too, by the Nakano Mame method with time and temperature closely controlled.


A snack, easy to portion and carry, and a good gift for children or newcomers to chocolate.
