75% Chocoviar Cuor di Cacao Bar

Price varies
dark chocolateitalian chocolate75% cocoa

Venchi is a premium Italian chocolatier that avoids cheap fats like PGPR, but this bar is a gourmet confection rather than a health-focused craft product. While it meets the 75% cocoa threshold, it lacks transparency regarding heavy metal testing (Lead/Cadmium) and likely uses alkalized cocoa powder in its 'microsphere' coating, which reduces total flavanol content compared to natural, non-alkalized bars.
