Featured Chocolates - April 2015

Known as a “Tree to Bar” chocolate producer, Mindo Chocolate Makers is a very special and unusual chocolate company. They are involved in the entire chocolate making process, from hand selecting the cacao pods to fermentation, roasting, conching, and hand wrapping the final product. While the beans are crafted into gourmet chocolate at their base in Dexter, Michigan, the magic begins at their location in Mindo, Ecuador where ultra-rare Nacional cacao trees produce what are widely regarded as the finest cocoa beans in the world. Using only these heirloom beans and organic evaporated cane juice, Mindo crafts an incredibly flavorful chocolate which they then marry to Michigan cherries, tropical fruit, vanilla, Celtic sea salt, and more!
