Foodin’s Raw Chocolate Almonds are a classic flavour pair, that works just as well as a tasty snack as it does on the dessert table. 

Foodin’s raw chocolates are the result of sustainable development and a lifelong passion. Their founder Lasse Jalkanen is known for his great love of chocolate, making raw chocolate a particularly important product group at Foodin. The main ingredient of their chocolate is the Criollo variety original cocoa beans, which are grown by hundreds of family farmers in the heart of the Amazonian rainforest. Their raw chocolate gets its sweetness from Indonesian coconut sugar, which has often been referred to as the most sustainable sweetener in the world. Coconut sugar has a low glycemic index, keeping blood sugar levels steady. 

Foodin’s raw chocolate almonds are made by hand at their factory in Vaajakoski, and the raw chocolate is prepared using a traditional stone ground method. Giant millstones grind the ingredients into a velvety chocolate mass for two or three days and the low, below 42-degree Celsius temperature ensures that the properties of the cocoa bean are preserved in the final product. The stone mill process provides velvety texture and softness to the chocolate. Finally, their gentle icing machine entwines the almonds in soft and tasty, strong raw chocolate.  

Their raw chocolates are vegan and contain no preservatives or additives whatsoever. All you have to do is take a peek at the ingredient list – they make our chocolates from only the best ingredients. All their raw chocolate products have received the Flag Key label as a sign of Finnish craftsmanship and labour.
