Sarsaparilla & Orange
Here we have re-created classic Sarsaparilla flavour by combining three spices, sarsaparilla, liquorice and ginger with cacao and orange. The resulting chocolate is wonderfully aromatic and refreshing, with candied orange pieces for a sweet zesty bite.
Ingredients: Cocoa solids 68% (cocoa beans, cocoa butter), organic sugar, sarsaparilla root, liquorice root, ginger root, orange oil, candied orange (orange peel, glucose, sugar, citric acid, preservative E220).

Nestled in the heart of the cacao rich Duarte province in the Dominican Republic, Oko Caribe is a gem amongst cacao suppliers. Founded in 2006 by Adriano Rodriguez and Gualberto Acebey Torrejon, two professionals with large experience in cocoa production across Latin America. Oko Caribe maintains close relationships with its farmers which receive direct training and funding.
The variety is a mixture of Forestero and Trinitario which has a rich cocoa flavour highlighted by cherry and red berries. Haiti is one of our favorite beans to work with as it has a generous amount of cocoa butter in the bean, this makes the chocolate easy to work with and tempers really well.
Sarsaparilla is a vine which grows in many regions all over the world and has been used in traditional medicines for thousands of years. There are several genus of the plant but the one we prefer is Hemidesmus indicus. Hemidesmus indicus is like a “false” sarsaparilla which does not contain any active chemicals, and we think it tastes the best.
