Ghanaesque Chocolate making kit



RIP Ghana 2020.  I talked about a bit ago how an old and dearly loved staple of the cocoa community is basically gone.  A week didn't go by when someone didn't ask what was like it and I had no answer.....until now.  I've been blending my buns off and found a blend of sustainable beans that evoke many of the qualities that people loved about Ghana.  Chocolate, dates, cured tobacco, red fruits; basically the flavors of chocolate many of us grew up with.

Now the truth is Ghana cocoa didn't always make great dark chocolate...it was just off...but it made a glorious semi-sweet that just seems to disappear so that is what I'm offering here, plus a guilt free milk option.

This kit includes all the materials you need for making a batch of chocolate, already portioned out.  You won't need to roast, winnow or even weigh anything. All you have to do is toss in the Melanger and the next day you have chocolate that harkens back to bold, rich, sweet chocolate you had as a kid.

Just like all the hip new food in a box delivered to your door programs assume you have basic cooking equipment and utensils, I too assume you have a Melanger like the Spectra 11 or similar, and a basic home oven.

You do have a couple choices you can make. 

  • Dark(ish) or Milk.
  • 2 lb or 5 lb batches. 

If you have graduated beyond kits, I have the Ghanaesque Blend you can use for whatever your chocolate making heart desires.
