Description

Like that exotic vacation you've been dreaming about. Dark chocolate combined with black sesame praline, cashews and pili nuts makes for an almost sinfully indulgent and crunchy treat. If a sexy adventure had a flavor, this would be it.

The pili nut is the fruit of an originally Philippine tree. The seeds (nuts) are often roasted with honey and eaten or used in confectionery, such as in this chocolate.

Cocoa from Malabog
Theo & Philo works with cocoa from the barangay Malabog, a community of about 11,000 inhabitants, which is part of Davao City , the largest city in the Philippines by area . Everything in Davao City is low-rise and very green, stretched out in hill country.

There are many small cocoa growers in Malabog. The growing conditions are perfect. In 2019, for example, Nong Joe won the prize for the best cocoa beans from the International Cocoa Awards (ICA) out of 226 participants from 55 countries.
Philo Chua sources the cocoa in collaboration with the organization Gawad Kalinga , from a group of farmers. Gawad Kalinga helps people out of poverty.
(Barangay is the smallest political administrative unit in the Philippines.)

Ingredients: cocoa beans (58%), cane sugar, glazed pili nuts ( pili nuts , sugar, oil), cashew nuts , cocoa butter, black sesame.

Contains nuts and sesame. May contain traces of cow's milk and soya.
