Giant 70% Uganda with Cocoa Nibs, KAICAO 500g
Related products
Product detailed description
First the roasted crushed cocoa beans crunch, then the smooth 70% chocolate melts. Giant 70% Uganda by KAICAO is built on that contrast: a layer of crunchy nibs on top and, beneath it, a velvety smooth dark bar sweetened only with date powder, with no added refined sugar.
The cocoa comes from Uganda, from the Semuliki Forest area. The taste is fully cocoa and dark, the nibs sharpen it further, and the dates bring a gentle sweetness that amounts to 22.3 g of sugars per 100 g. The ingredients list has three items: cocoa beans, cocoa butter and dates. If you are after a chocolate you can properly bite into and that does not vanish from your tongue within a second, this is the one.
The 500 g pack is a giant bar for breaking up. Divide it into a tin for the whole week, take it to the office or put it on the table when the crew gets together after training. Compared with the standard 70 g bar you get better value per gram and less packaging, while the taste and the recipe stay the same.

KAICAO: stone-ground ceremonial cacao
KAICAO is the brand of Madrid chocolatier Ida Talmore, who works bean-to-bar: from choosing the beans on a specific plantation to the finished product in one workshop. KAICAO ceremonial cacao is a full-fat cacao powder made from lightly roasted beans that are stone-ground for two days and then aged for two months. The result is earthy with a light floral note, and it is prepared as a thick hot drink rather than the sweet cocoa of childhood.
The beans come from a single Ecuadorian plantation, Hacienda Limón; the MEXICAN variety uses washed Lavado beans from Tabasco in Mexico. Nothing is sweetened with sugar and no emulsifiers or lecithin are added.
At BJP Store you will find
- 100% ceremonial cacao – pure, single-ingredient, 200 g for ten servings.
- MEXICAN – 96% cacao with two kinds of chilli, cinnamon, star anise and cloves in the style of Mesoamerican xocoatl.
- FOCUS and MINDFULNESS – 92% cacao with lion's mane and cordyceps, or with reishi, ashwagandha and spices.
