Cacaosuyo – Milk 45% with Quinoa

About the bar

Cacaosuyo’s 45% Quinoa Milk Chocolate marks a departure for this Peruvian maker. While both the Piura Select and the Lakuna bars are both wonderfully smooth, this bar unites two of Peru’s greatest natural products – cacao and quinoa – to produce a marvellously rich milk chocolate with a very definite crunch.

We love the idea of uniting these two truly Peruvian foods, and although the thought of a quinoa chocolate might seem odd at first this is a bar where the whole is most definitely greater than sum of its parts.  This really is a bar of contrasts, the wonderfully rich milk chocolate has an unrefined, almost fudgy quality while the sharp pieces of roasted quinoa give the bar a distinctly malted crunch.

Altogether, this bar is a must try for the adventurous milk chocolate lover, who likes with bars to have more than a little crunch.
