Cayenne Veracruz Orange in White Chocolate
The Cayenne Veracruz Orange bar has been known to convert even dark chocolate purists into white chocolate fans. Drawing inspiration from a refreshing local delicacy in the Yucatan Peninsula, favored on hot days - a fresh sliced orange with a light dusting of chili powder. This bar leads with a citrusy nose, melts into a creamy sensation and finishes with a kick of red pepper that lingers. 30% cacao ethically sourced from West Africa. Orange and vanilla notes contrast the subtle heat of cayenne forward chili powder for an unexpected, full flavor experience.
