The Cacao Ambassador (TCA) brings its Cacao Butter, Cacao Nibs, and 100 percent Cacao Paste to New Zealand for the KAI PASIFIKA celebration. Sourced from the Solomon Islands and Papua New Guinea, TCA is about creating a connection between chocolate and the farmers that grow cacao.
The Cacao butter has been extracted from the paste through high pressure. It is rich in vanilla and chocolate fragrances and melts perfectly.
The Cacao paste is made from beans that are under 30 days old for freshness and optimal potency. They are gently roasted, cracked, have the husks removed and ground for 24 hours. When the paste is smooth enough, it is allowed to set naturally. Available in 200g and 2kg.
The Cacao Nibs have been hand-made by women in the Solomon Islands, gently roasted and cracked before having the shell removed. Available in 200g and 400g.
KAI PASIFIKA is a celebration of fine produce and cuisine of the Blue Pacific Continent that will be held at Peter Gordon's Homeland Food Embassy in Westhaven, Auckland, from October 3-6.
