Hazelnut cream with cocoa
Organic
Georgia / Togo
Sweet spread with a hazelnut content of 25 per cent. The nuts are double-roasted for a particularly intense hazelnut flavour. It is refined with real cocoa paste from Togo instead of cocoa powder and fat, as is the case with certain other chocolate spreads. This cocoa paste gives the cream an intense chocolate flavour.
The nuts in the cream are the same as those you will find unprocessed in our shop. They come from West Georgia, where the first roasting takes place. Our partner Pakka therefore creates jobs and income in the region.

JILDA GEGECHKORI
FARMER FROM DARCHELI, GEORGIA
I love winter. By then, all the crops have been harvested and I have time to rest.
"I live in the western part of Georgia, in the Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti region. Legend has it that this is the motherland of hazelnut cultivation. Most people in my village are involved in hazelnut production, my family included. We earn most of our income from hazelnut cultivation. My husband also makes worm compost, which provides our second source of income. He's an expert in soil fertility and tries to share his knowledge with the village as well."
