Cocoa Butter made from Soconusco, Mexico beans.
"The main ingredient in our white chocolate is 34% natural, non-deodorized cocoa butter. The cocoa butter is pressed in our factory and we are the first small-batch chocolate maker to do this. After pressing our Soconusco, Mexico beans to create the cocoa butter, we combine it with goat's milk powder and organic cane juice, and then craft it for days in our 85-year old German melanguer, making ours one of the only single origin white chocolates in the world. It is available in a Nibble Bar and a bar with organic roasted and salted pistachios.
“…Askinosie is the only small-batch chocolate maker in the United States that makes white chocolate. Askinosie's white chocolate is 34% cocoa butter, making it one of the richest in the world and because they don't process their cocoa butter it has a distinct buttery/nutty chocolate flavor that seems less sweet than other white chocolates."
