Truly a chocolate meant to be savored! This unique series of dark chocolates combine unique Modica chocolate with flavors inspired by the cities of Sicily. Cioccolato di Modica is a PGI within the European Union recognizing Modica's traditional craft of chocolate making, introduced by the Spanish in the 16th century. Cocoa is manually ground without being separated from the cocoa butter, before being combined with sugar and other additions. This bar honors Catania with its addition of Prickly Pear and Marjoram. Unlike most chocolate, modica chocolates are worked cold and are not conched, resulting in a crumbly, granular texture with natural air pockets. Let this chocolate gently warm and melt in your mouth to enjoy this traditional artisan product.
The first bar created specifically for Catania , between Etna and the sea, we perceive its energy from far away!
