Hot Shot Chocolate made with
100% Sustainable, Traceable Cocoa Beans
Hot Shot Chocolate products are made with premium couverture chocolate made from ethically sourced cocoa beans from 3 countries: Ivory Coast, Ghana & Ecuador.
Anually audited through the independent non-profit organization - Cocoa Horizons. www.cocoahorizons.org
Cocoa Horizons improve the livelihoods of cocoa farmers and their communities through the promotion of sustainable, entrepreneurial farming, improved productivity, and community development, which protect nature and children.
Premium Couverture Chocolate
Hot Shot Chocolate produces only high quality chocolate products made with premium couverture chocolate.
Couverture chocolate is considered a very high-quality chocolate that contains a higher percentage of cocoa butter. Cocoa butter is what gives chocolate its unique mouth-feel and stable properties.
To be considered “real” chocolate, a chocolate product will contain only cocoa butter as its fat source, not any other fat substitute. Chocolate that replaces cocoa butter with fats like palm oil are called "compound chocolate" and are considered more of a candy than true chocolate.
Hand Tempering Techniques
Hot Shot Chocolate products are all handcraft, hand tempered in small batches to ensure the highest of quality and attention to detail in every order.
Tempering chocolate is a heating and cooling technique while agitating the cocoa butter content within the chocolate to entice the fatty acid crystals of cocoa butter back into one stable form.
The benefit of chocolate tempering creates a shiny exterior, smooth texture & satisfying snap in every bite!
Learn more about Chocolate Tempering in our Chocolate Making 101 workshop!
