Modica chocolate with Cucunci and Fior di sale “Chocolate from Pantelleria”

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Modica Chocolate can safely be called the king of all chocolate. Its secret lies in the unique processing method of Modica’s master chocolatiers. In fact, the cocoa is processed cold, so it never reaches a temperature higher than 40°C, with the addition of sugar and typical Sicilian spices. The low temperature allows the sugar crystals to remain intact and all the most natural aromas and flavors of the cocoa beans not to dissipate. The final texture of this magnificent chocolate is crumbly and grainy, different from classic chocolate, precisely because of the special processing and the absence of external substances such as milk, soy lecithin and hydrogenated fats.

In this version of Modica chocolate, Sabadi wanted to pay homage to one of the most magical islands of the Mediterranean Sea and Sicily: Pantelleria. The cucunci, used dried in this bar, are the fruits of the caper plant, of which Pantelleria is rich; fior di sale, on the other hand, means the noblest part of sea salt, strictly Sicilian in this bar. The contrast between the bitter sweetness of the chocolate and the savoriness of the cucunci and fior di sale envelops the palate and gives special emotions.

We are aware that for excellence products need excellence packaging and at the same time we cannot risk damaging in any way the precious Italian culinary jewels: for this reason our warehouse is equipped with temperature and lighting ideal for food preservation and the most delicate (cheeses, cold cuts and craft beers) are stored inside cold rooms. During shipping, on the other hand, each product is protected with the packaging most appropriate to its characteristics.

Cheeses and cured meats, which despite being aged require special care, travel accompanied by a special slow-release gel ice inside isothermal bags: in this way freshness is preserved until the goods arrive at your home.

For our craft beers, which are unpasteurized and therefore more sensitive to high temperatures than normal, we use special isothermal bubble wrap, which can ensure that the accumulated cold is maintained for the shipping time and at the same time protect the bottles from shocks.

To secure the precious bottles of Italian wine, we have equipped ourselves with special inflatable bags, designed solely for the purpose of immobilizing and protecting this product inside the box.

For jars containing a thousand Italian goodnesses, we use special protective bubble wrap liners.
