Is this chocolate suitable for vegans?

Yes, this bar is certified vegan and contains no animal products. It is also certified organic, kosher, and gluten free.

How bitter is 80% cacao chocolate?

At 80% cacao, this bar contains very little sugar and tastes intensely bitter compared to typical supermarket dark chocolate. The bitterness is balanced by fruit and citrus notes, but if you usually prefer milk chocolate or bars below 70%, this will likely be too bitter for your taste.

What is the shelf life of this chocolate?

Dark chocolate with high cacao content typically stays fresh for a year or more when stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. The low sugar content helps preserve it longer than milk or lower-percentage dark chocolate.

Can I buy this in bulk?

Yes, you can purchase a case of ten bars in addition to the single 2.5 oz bar option. The case option is useful if you go through dark chocolate regularly or want to avoid frequent reordering.

Why it's on GiftsFeed

Organic Dark Chocolate 80% Cacao

Most dark chocolate over 75% tastes flat—bitter and one-note because the beans weren't good enough to stand on their own. This bar works at 80% because the cacao itself has the complexity to carry it. The berry and bergamot notes are what you taste when a chocolate maker starts with quality beans and doesn't bury them under sugar. If you've tried high-percentage chocolate before and found it punishing, this is worth a second chance. If you already prefer dark and want something that rewards attention, the layered flavor here justifies the jump from standard bittersweet.

The details

This bar sits at the intense end of dark chocolate, with 80% cacao and only the sugar needed to balance the bitterness. The flavor profile moves beyond simple cocoa into layered territory: berry brightness, a hint of bergamot citrus, and a savory sourdough undertone that keeps each bite from feeling one-dimensional.

The minimal ingredient list makes this bar certified organic, vegan, kosher, and gluten free. You get cacao and just enough sweetener to let the bean quality show through.

At 2.5 ounces, each bar breaks into individual squares that you can portion out or work through in a single sitting. The case option provides ten bars if you go through them regularly or want to stock up without reordering every week.
