Dark
$18.00
Based on Mayan spices used to flavor the Ka’kau’ (Cacao) bean. On desserts, it is the deep forest surrounding a comforting home. It is the chill night air that we embrace after dinner with a loved one. Dark adds the thrill of unfamiliarity to our most traditional desserts. Add Dark to dishes featuring chocolate – cakes, cookies, sauces, mousse or cocoa. Or, add a rich Mesoamerican flavor to non-chocolate desserts. Sprinkle on cream; add to smoothies, shakes or coffee.
Hand-blended in small batches with Ceylon cinnamon, pure ground vanilla, sweet Chile, black pepper, star anise and mace.

Been a customer for years. But felt compelled to review this one. Love this blend, complex but not overpowering. Can’t have my latte without it anymore!! If you’re on the fence about buying it, make the jump. ~ posted 6/29/2015

I was adding this to my hot chocolate and coffee. But recently was trying to jazz up a healthy snack for my 9 year old grandson so I sprinkled it on top of homemade non fat soy greek yogurt I’d spread on toast and he loved it! He said it made it taste like dessert. I totally recommend this.
