About the bar
This rich and bold 100% bar has notes of typical Madagascan fruitiness to complement the intense cocoa kick, ensuring you are not overwhelmed. Fantastic for those who would love to try 100% but are scared to dip their toe in the water.
About the maker
Chocolat Madagascar is one of only two craft chocolate factories in Madagascar. Whilst Madagascar is well known for the quality and flavour of its cacao, the vast majority of its beans are exported and crafted into chocolate in Europe, the US and Asia. Chocolat Madagascar makes for both its domestic market and export, and has been winning awards galore for its bars.
And although Madagascar is known for its vanilla, Chocolat Madagascar refrains from using vanilla in its chocolate. Crafting chocolate without vanilla allows the chocolate to express the pure flavour of Madagascar’s fine flavour cacao.
The beans
Robert has been making chocolate from local Malagasy cocoa beans since 1940 working closely with local farmers. Working so closely with the local farmers, Chocolat Madagascar can – rightly so – pride itself on traceably sourcing its ingredients and supporting the farmers and people of Madagascar.

What do other people who've discovered Chocolat Madagascar - Organic Dark 100% have to say?
With a post Covid 50% taste remaining, this is marvelous on the tongue and reminds me how fortunate I am to have a good measure of taste left. A sweetness comes through that enhances the natural chocolate bitterness. I’m hard pushed to describe the fruit flavors other than to say “fruity”

Best 100% bar I have found. It does vary in flavour though. Some batches are less sweet/ more bitter, and slightly disappointing!

The best 100% cocoa product I’ve tasted (and I’ve tasted many), without doubt. Great taste, intensity and finish, and hard to stop once you start the bar ! And good value for money as well. Love it !

This is my favorite 100% chocolate bar so far. I love the sweetness that comes through. I can see why it won a Gold award.

This was my first 100% experience and I always come back to it. It has a noticeable high butter content and you still get to taste the acidic flavours of Madagascar, though less pronounced than other bars from Madagascar. Roast and woody flavours seem to be more dominant, it’s the perfect first timer bar

I’m new to 100% chocolate and this was VERY easy to eat. As one of the other reviewers said, maybe too easy – by which I mean there is a risk of eating the entire bar 🙂 I got dark red and into black fruit notes – like a really juicy wine with just a hint of tannins. It was a bit like eating a fruit and nut chocolate bar without the nuts. Really delicious, I was disappointed it was out of stock when I went back to purchase more.

This is the least intense 100% I’ve had before as it’s doesn’t give that huge cocoa hit but it still has much flavour. The initial notes are of tropical fruits then of lime and finishing with the more red fruits you expect from a Madagascan bar. So quite fruity, and definitely making the bar lighter and sweeter than typical 100%s. Very smooth and delicious

Indeed, this is a very tame chocolate as for 100%. Maybe even too tame? The problem I found with it is that the taste is not really pronounced, so that 90% Zotter tastes much more powerful. Also, is starts pretty slowly, revealing its Madagascan fruitiness only at the end.
