VALRHONA Komuntu 80% – Dark Chocolate Couverture - 3kg
VALRHONA Komuntu 80% – Dark Chocolate Couverture - 3kg
To celebrate together Valrhona's 100th anniversary, Valrhona had created with you Komuntu.
Suppliers, cocoa partners, employees, customers, consumers, you were all involved in every step of the way: from finding a unique taste to choosing a packaging design with symbolic patterns which reflects the diversity of Valrhona's different cocoa-producing countries. All stakeholders of the ethical chocolate world, Valrhona embodies Komuntu.
Its name is a contraction of “Komunumo” which means community in Esperanto and “Ubuntu” an African concept which states “I am, because we are”.
Komuntu is a chocolate created with you, for you.
The whole supply chain has helped create Komuntu’s flavour. It tells the story of all the people Valrhona has met around the world. Thus, the blend of its cocoas has a singular aromatic character. Because Komuntu is the physical embodiment of Valrhona's commitment to a fair, sustainable chocolate sector and creative, responsible gastronomy, during their 100th anniversary year Valrhona is redistributing all the profits made to cocoa producers.

At above 26°C, cocoa butter in chocolate products may start melting, and recrystallize as white streaks or marks on the chocolate's surface. This phenomenon is called 'fat bloom'. While it may not have the perfect appearance, bloomed chocolates are safe to eat and use in recipes.
