INDIE VIRGIN CHOCOLATE FROM BROOKLYN-RAAKA CHOCOLATE

So the weekend before last, I was at the Columbus Circle Holiday Market at Central Park and 8th Avenue. The market is a great place to buy gifts and people watch OH and get FOOD!!

For example, I met two very lovely young women selling handmade virgin dark chocolate of four lovely flavors with four different beautiful packaging designs: Dark With Sea Salt, Blueberry Lavender, Hazelnut, and Vanilla Rooibos!

Apparently the Vanilla Rooibos has a marshmallow-y aftertaste, so being the marshmallow junkie that I am, I obviously went for that:



What is virgin chocolate you ask? Well, it's just a chocolate with self-respect!

hehe

No, but actually it means that the cacao beans aren't traditionally roasted and cooked at a lower temperature than normal. So it's straight up cacao y'all!

Anywho- here's the website: http://www.raakachocolate.com/

GO ENTREPRENEURS + CHOCOLATE!
