Organic premium dark chocolate with 70% cocoa and natural orange extract, vegan.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBerger Premium Dark Chocolate with Orange\u003c\/strong\u003e is a dark organic bar with at least 70% cocoa, flavored with natural orange extract. It weighs 90 g, is vegan according to the manufacturer, and is produced in Lofer in the Salzburg region. It does not contain candied peel or fruit pieces; the orange is captured in the aroma.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePremium Dark Chocolate with Orange by Berger\u003c\/strong\u003e is considered one of the refined bars in the confectionery's assortment. This refers to varieties where the chocolate itself is refined, rather than having pieces or a filling added. In this bar, this is achieved by a natural orange extract containing essential oils from the peel, making up 1.89% of the recipe. The rest is quickly listed: cocoa mass, raw cane sugar, cocoa butter, and vanilla. Five ingredients, all from organic farming. Milk powder and emulsifiers are not on the list, which is why the manufacturer classifies the bar as vegan. Anyone who previously knew orange chocolate as a sweet combination will discover a more tart variant here. It is dark, dry on the finish, and has a citrus scent that hits the nose as soon as it is unwrapped.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTaste: dark cocoa, topped with fresh orange peel\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe first impression belongs to the cocoa. With at least 70%, the bar is distinctly tart, with roasted notes and a slight bitterness. Shortly thereafter, the orange rises. It acts like freshly grated zest, making the dark chocolate appear lighter and fresher rather than sweeter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe essential oils of the orange are in the chocolate itself. That is why the melt remains smooth and even; there are no pieces that crack between the teeth. The raw cane sugar provides a mild, slightly caramel-like sweetness, and the vanilla rounds it off. The citrus note lingers for a while on the finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThose expecting a mild, sweet chocolate will find this bar too tart. It is aimed at everyone who likes dark chocolate and appreciates a fresh note to go with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eUse: with espresso, after a meal, and as a vegan gift\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA piece of this bar goes well at the end of a meal. Instead of a dessert, place a few squares on a small plate and serve an espresso alongside it. The bitterness of the coffee and the orange of the chocolate complement each other, and neither masks the other. It also goes well with a black tea in the afternoon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it is vegan according to the manufacturer, the bar is suitable as a small gift when vegan food is also being served at the table. At 90 g, it is a handy token of appreciation for colleagues, neighbors, or as a thank you after an invitation. Store it in a cool, dry place away from heat to ensure the scent of the orange remains preserved for a long time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Take a sniff of the bar when opening it before you break off the first piece. The orange aroma is strongest then and will show you what to expect when it melts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOrigin: fair-trade organic ingredients, processed in Lofer\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBerger Confiserie is based in Lofer, a town in the Pinzgauer Saalachtal in the Salzburg region. The company was founded in 1994 by master confectioner Hubert Berger together with his wife Christine. After passing his master craftsman's examination, he learned the chocolatier's craft at confectioneries in Germany and Belgium. The two started out in his parents' garage. Today, they manage the business together with their children Anna and Franz, and production continues to take place exclusively in Lofer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis bar is organic and bears the control number AT-BIO-301. According to the manufacturer, cocoa, raw cane sugar, and vanilla come from Fairtrade-certified cultivation and trade; together, these account for 98.1% of the recipe. For a dark bar with such a short ingredient list, that is almost the entire chocolate. The small remainder is essentially accounted for by the orange extract.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFor whom: for lovers of dark chocolate with freshness\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe bar is suitable for everyone who likes premium dark chocolate and is looking for a fruity change of pace. It is a good choice for vegan households and for those who like to taste orange and cocoa together. If you want to try the dark chocolate in its purest form, choose the classic \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/edelbitter\"\u003epremium dark bar\u003c\/a\u003e. A fruity alternative with real fruit pieces is the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/edelbitter-mit-sauerkirschstueckchen\"\u003epremium dark with sour cherry pieces\u003c\/a\u003e. The page of \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/hersteller-berger-schokolade\"\u003eBerger Confiserie\u003c\/a\u003e shows you all varieties from Lofer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe orange extract contains almond oil, which is why the bar contains tree nuts and, according to the manufacturer, may contain traces of peanuts, soy, and milk. It is not suitable for people with a tree nut allergy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eOrganic premium dark chocolate with orange from Lofer – tart, fresh, and a good choice for espresso.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Berger Confiserie","offers":[{"title":"90 g","offer_id":59057906745676,"sku":"030WIL7307","price":6.6,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1058\/3903\/4700\/files\/030WIL7307.png?v=1791182635","url":"https:\/\/leniundhans.at\/en\/products\/edelbitter-schokolade-mit-orange","provider":"Leni \u0026 Hans","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
