In partnership with the riverside communities, Luisa conducted her first fermentation at this origin. Teaching them how to do this fermentation did not encounter any obstacles; on the contrary, it was made easier by her familiarity with cocoa culture. This resulted in an increase in their families’ income, since well-fermented cocoa is sold at a price two to three times higher than unfermented cocoa. The communities that live on the banks of the Tocantins River, a river with a well-defined course located in the Lower Amazon Basin, survive by extracting açaí, cocoa and fishing. This cocoa is harvested on the banks of the Tocantins River, in the city of Mocajuba, in Pará.
The package comes with two 40g bars each wrapped separately, totaling 80g of chocolate. This way you don't need to open your chocolate all at once and can consume it with 100% quality at another time!
