Criollo, known as the "King of Cacao," is one of the rarest and most coveted cacao varieties in the world.

It is believed to be the "original" cacao varietal, dating back to the Mayas and the Aztecs, and it was at risk of extinction for many years.

Criollo is delicate, mostly cultivated in Venezuela, and it makes up just 0.01% of the global cacao production.

Our team of talented chocolatiers have developed an exclusive range of 3 Single Varietal Criollo Ganaches in partnership with Chantal Coady OBE. 

This hand-ribboned box contains 3 of each type of Criollo truffles:

These ganaches will be best enjoyed progressing from the 75% Chuao Criollo to the 62% Canoabo Criollo, finishing with the 38% Ocumare Criollo.
