Three extra-dark single-origin chocolate bars, plus a detailed tasting guide

In this tasting set, we highlight the bars we craft using 85% cocoa and above — a perfect experience for the lover of intense chocolate! These extra-dark bars are especially tricky to make. Natural flavor notes come through clearly when little to no sugar is added, so we need beans with exceptionally well-balanced flavors. High-percentage chocolate from some craft makers includes extra cocoa butter and vanilla to mute bitter tastes. We only use two ingredients, cocoa beans and organic cane sugar, so it takes time to find and develop beans that can stand on their own. The results are worth it.

If you're like us, you'll love the fudgy, brownie-like flavors of our two high-percentage Ecuadorian bars, made of beans from Costa Esmeraldas and Camino Verde, and the chocolate-and-berry notes of our Maya Mountain bar.

Our Chocolate Philosophy

Bean to Bar in San Francisco

We’re Dandelion Chocolate, a bean-to-bar chocolate maker in San Francisco’s Mission District. For over 10 years, we’ve been turning cocoa beans and organic sugar into pure dark chocolate. We travel and build lasting relationships with cocoa farmers and producers, then craft small batches of chocolate back home in our factory. With our minimal approach, we aim to highlight different beans’ distinctive flavor notes — from classic fudge to tangy fruit.

JUST
TWO INGREDIENTS

Beans and sugar.
That's all.

Our chocolate bars are just two ingredients: cocoa beans and organic sugar. We never add cocoa butter, soy lecithin, vanilla, flavorings, or preservatives because those ingredients mask the inherent flavors in beans.

PRODUCER
FOCUSED

Good cocoa starts
with good relationships.

Good relationships are absolutely essential to procuring consistently good flavor. We work closely with the producers who grow, ferment, and dry the single-origin cocoa beans we source, so we can share this amazing cocoa.

CONNECTING
OVER CHOCOLATE

We hope someday you'll join us at our San Francisco factory for a toasty s'more while watching chocolate makers craft beans into chocolate. In the meanwhile, we'll ship bars and truffles to your doorstep, host you for a virtual chocolate class, or answer (chocolate!) questions you might have via phone or email.
