FROM CACAO BEANS TO CHOCOLATE

We are Singapore's first and award winning artisanal bean-to-bar craft chocolate maker. Inspired by a new generation of chocolate makers worldwide, we are in pursuit of bringing forth the wonderful flavours of cacao to our neighbourhood, while sharing the authentic taste of Asia to the world.

Most of us are used to having our chocolates brown. But did you know that fresh cacao beans are actually purple (and even white for the rare Trinitario varietals)?
In order to develop complex flavours, the beans must be subjected to a fermentation process where tannins present in the beans, which cause astringency and extreme bitterness, are oxidized.
This results in the formation of aromatic substances and reduced bitterness, and also gives rise to the familiar reddish brown shade of cacao beans.

Chewing on our Mava Ottange chocolate this cozy Friday night and reminiscing the old days when our journey began.
About five years ago, a friend brought us a Madagascar single origin craft chocolate bar as a gift for Christmas, which blew us away - it was full of raspberry, and almond flavour! But there were only two ingredients on the list - cacao and sugar. It was then that we realised the taste of chocolates could be so flat with commercial bars yet so flavourful with the craft chocolates.
Fast forward to today, we’ve launched single origin chocolates from so many countries but this.
This particular one still strikes a chord with us. .

People we meet often ask, “What does Fossa mean?” It has a nice ring to it 😉 and also resonates with our beginnings and what we do.
Fossa is an animal that is unique to the forests in Madagascar – the same origin of the craft chocolate bar we tasted years ago that inspired our journey. Those who have heard or seen this animal would also know of it being very nimble and agile, with a fierce, wild personality. This relates to our approach in chocolate making, where we constantly challenge ourselves to create bold yet delicious and memorable flavours.
It’s mid week now and you deserve a treat. Go on, grab a bar and enjoy!
