Working from a tiny Parisian workshop, Ara sources cacao directly from small growers and cooperatives across Latin America, with a focus on rare native and ancestral varieties. Every batch reflects the company’s commitment to preserving cacao heritage while letting the flavor of each ingredient speak clearly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSweet citrus, floral aromatics, soft herbal finish\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCitron, cacao, sugar, cocoa butter\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ara Chocolat","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46321133912214,"sku":"1817","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/chefshop.com\/products\/ara-chocolat-dark-chocolate-covered-cedrat","provider":"ChefShop.Com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
