If you have been with us as loyal chocolate friends over the past couple of years you undoubtedly have heard of Absolute Black, our beautifully bold 100% cocoa chocolate. If you haven't heard, its rich, velvety taste and texture make for the perfect treat for those wanting to indulge in true chocolate.  

Here's the deal! We've noticed some questions about what “100% cocoa solids” really means. How can a chocolate bar be made from 100% cocoa and still be buttery smooth without feeling powdery?   

Let's unwrap this mystery together!  

Cocoa Solids

Essentially, cocoa solids are all the goodness that comes from the raw cocoa bean. When the bean is pressed it’s divided into two vital components.  

Together these form the cocoa mass - the 100% heart and soul of Absolute Black.  

Here’s where the magic happens. Because we use the whole cocoa mass, you get to go through a tasty journey of silky texture and deep flavours like never before.  

This bar offers a rare chocolate experience that needs both cocoa solids to work. Tasting one without the other really does make you feel as though you've just taken a spoonful of flour - not exactly the experience we’re all going for!  

So, is it really 100% cocoa?  

Absolutely! There's nothing else in our Absolute Black. No added sugar, no artificial's, just pure guilt-free cocoa. It’s timeless, honest and as flavourful as chocolate gets.
