Cacao %
What does cacao percentage actually mean?
Cacao percentage is the share of the bar's weight that comes from the cacao bean — cocoa solids plus cocoa butter. A 70% bar is 70% bean-derived material; most of the remaining 30% is sugar.
What it tells you: roughly how intense and how sweet the bar will be. What it doesn't tell you: quality or flavor. Our catalog spans 30% to 100% cacao, and top-rated bars exist at nearly every level — a 62% dark-milk crossover holds one of our highest ratings. Percentage is a volume knob, not a quality score; origin, bean variety, and craftsmanship decide whether what gets amplified is worth hearing.
