Bulk Chocolate Now Available !
Quite a few chefs and chocolatiers have asked if they can purchase our chocolate in bulk for their creations. Initially, we decided to wait. We were in our first year of production and wanted to ensure that our quality was as high as our standards. Our reviews surely attest to the fact that we achieved this goal. For this reason, we are now offering our chocolate in bulk form to professional chefs and the public alike.
Availability
We expect to run out of chocolate from time to time of each of the varieties we work with. The beans we use often have limited (if not highly limited) availability. Once the beans are gone, they are potentially gone until after the next harvest. Please check with us if long term availability is an issue for you. We may be able to set aside chocolate for your future use.
Our bulk chocolate is only available directly from Amano. There are many reasons for this. The primary one of which is that while we would love to provide our bulk chocolate to resellers, it would force us to raise the prices for bulk chocolate considerably. For this reason, bulk chocolate is exclusively available directly from Amano.
Ocumare - Premium Dark Chocolate, 70% Cacao On the central coast of Venezuela is a remote valley known as Ocumare de la Costa. Once almost totally inaccessible, the Ocumare region has been known for its superior criollo cacao since at least the early 1700's. We hand selected these beans for their fruity and floral notes that pair well with the rich chocolate flavor. We then carefully roasted them in our antique cacao roaster to enhance their optimal flavor. These are some of the finest cocoa beans we have discovered and from which we have made a chocolate you are sure to enjoy. Price: $44.00/kg ($20.00/lb) |
Madagascar - Premium Dark Chocolate, 70% Cacao Madagascar has long been known for producing fine cocoa beans. The beans from Madagascar are primarily of the Trinitario and Criollo varieties. The soil and climate produce beans that are particularly fruity and our Madagascar bar is a fine example of this. This chocolate is perhaps a bit untraditional with its strong fruity flavors that include hints of citrus and berry and shows the wide range of flavors possible in cocoa. It is absolutely delicious and one that you will remember for its incredible flavor. Price: $44.00/kg ($20.00/lb) |
Guayas - Premium Dark Chocolate, 70% Cacao If you travel by boat up the Guayas river in Ecuador, you will come to a group of small cocoa plantations. These cocoa plantations are ancient and the farmers who tend them have had them in their families for generations. Growing cocoa on a flood plain is always difficult and the farmers live in houses that are on stilts. Even so, the rich fertile soil produces a cocoa like no other. It is from this cocoa that we have made this chocolate. It is rich and chocolatey with natural flavor notes (that comes from these incredible cocoa beans) of blackberry, smoke, leather and spice. This is an incredible chocolate not just to eat but to bake and cook with. Price: $44.00/kg ($20/lb) |
