Small batch — Nannup

Chocolate, made slowly.

Hand-tempered truffles and drinking chocolate, made in small batches in the Blackwood Valley. We roast, winnow and conch on site — the whole thing takes four days, and we would not shorten it.

Broken pieces of dark chocolate on a dark bench in raking light.

How it is made

Four days, start to finish.

Roast & winnow

Beans roasted in small drums, then cracked and winnowed by hand to separate the nib from the husk.

ii.

Conch

Seventy-two hours of slow grinding. This is the part that cannot be rushed, and the part most people skip.

iii.

Temper & set

Tempered by hand to a proper snap, then set in moulds and rested overnight before wrapping.
