Our own home-made paleo muffins with zero sugar added 85% chocolate chips, which uses NZ whole milk as the natural sweetener. Ingredients: Siamaya 85% Chocolate couverture, Banana, Almond, Raw Forest Honey, Tapioca, Pasture-raised Chicken Eggs The chocolate we use is: - Single-estate artisanal made chocolate - Just 2 whole-food ingredients, nothing processed - Zero added sugar & no artificial sweeteners - Keto-friendly (not the muffin though) - Lab tested for Cadmium and Lead - Hand-selected beans by our artisan chocolate-maker Siamaya Zero-sugar chocolate is all the rage, but low-calorie artificial sweeteners can leave a weird aftertaste. Together with the artisan chocolate makers Kristian and Neil at Siamaya up in Chiangmai we came up with a whole-foods and better tasting alternative: New Zealand grass-fed whole milk The natural sweetness of whole milk complements the bitterness of the cacoa solids perfectly. The result is a smooth, rich & decadent dark chocolate flavour unique to the Chunpon bean variety grown in Chiang Dao, Chiang Mai. Why Single-estate? There are many small single-estate chocolate growing areas in northern Thailand and each has a unique terroir which means it has a distinct flavour and character. Each area has a limited yield each harvest, and thus large commercial chocolate makers are forced to blend beans of different flavour and quality together. Through a process called "Dutch Processing" these bean-blends under a very high alkalinity lose their characteristic flavour and form a generic flavour and you'll no longer be able to taste the uniqueness or the quality of the bean characteristic to a particular area. An entire country is not a single-estate as some brands may want you to believe. Siamaya's farms are in Chiang Dao and Samung, Chiang Mai. Artisan chocolate makers do not Dutch Process their beans. Siamaya hand-selects the beans and removes any substandard beans to obtain the perfect flavour and character for their chocolate.
