Kumara Milk Chocolate
Like Cacao, Kumara originally came from South America, travelling west across the Pacific after being traded through the islands and landing in Aotearoa (New Zealand) with Maori.
In this chocolate, Hogarth has used Kumara crisps from their friends Ned and Mina at Proper Crisps. Proper makes their crisps using seasonally selected varieties, mostly Red Kumara (Owairaka), Gold Kumara (Toka Toka) and Orange Kumara (Beauregard).
Hogarth has paired the Kumara with their smooth Ecuador cacao allowing the delicate, sweet Kumara flavour to shine through.
