Flavors of Christmas

Gingerbread raw chocolate brings you the authentic flavors of Christmas all year round. The raw chocolate is spiced just like gingerbread dough, using real spices: Ceylon cinnamon, cardamom, clove, nutmeg, ginger and a pinch of allspice. The combination of spices and chocolate is like a piece of the Christmas spirit. Gingerbread chocolate also pairs wonderfully with other treats. Melt it into hot cocoa or use it in baking!

Foodin Raw Chocolates

Foodin raw chocolates are the result of a long-standing passion and responsible development. Our founder, Lasse Jalkanen, is known for his great love of raw chocolate, which is why chocolates are an especially important product range for us at Foodin.

Cocoa Beans

The chocolate is made from cocoa beans of the native Criollo variety, grown by hundreds of families as their life’s work in the heart of the rainforest in the Peruvian Amazon.

Finnish Craftsmanship

Foodin Gingerbread raw chocolate is handcrafted in Finland at our factory in Vaajakoski. The raw chocolate is made using the traditional stone ground method, in which giant millstones grind the ingredients into chocolate mass for two to three days. By keeping the temperature low, below 42 degrees, throughout the production process, we ensure that the properties of the cocoa bean are preserved all the way to the finished product. The gentle stone grinding also affects the texture and smoothness of the chocolate.

Tempering and Molding

Once the chocolate mass is ready, our stone ground masters Sanna and Malla both carry out a rigorous assessment of its flavor and texture. It is important to ensure that the mass is even and silky smooth and that the flavor is just right. The mass is then tempered, meaning it is heat-treated. Tempering gives the chocolate its glossy, beautiful finish. Dark chocolate requires a slightly higher tempering temperature than light chocolate. The tempered chocolate mass is shaped into bars using ready-made molds. The finished bars are then placed on a vibrating plate, which removes air bubbles and gives the surface a smooth, beautiful finish. The chocolate bars are cooled in a refrigerator.
