Story:
At 95% cacao, this bar represents one of Amedei’s most technically ambitious bars.
Rather than rely on cane sugar, Amedei made a radical choice - to replace sugar entirely and use pure maple sugar, derived from Canadian maple sap.
The result is not simple sweetness, but a layered, aromatic softness that tempers intensity and allows the cacao itself to remain firmly in focus - even at such an high percentage.
Emerging from that is an exceptionally elegant chocolate: deep and assertive, yet polished and sweet, with notes of liquorice, spice, and wild citrus unfolding gradually rather than aggressively.
Definitely one for those who seek depth, nuance, and sophistication in their chocolate.

Fiamma Tip:
Break into small pieces and let it melt slowly on the palate. Notice how the maple sugar rounds the edges, revealing notes of liquorice, spice, and wild citrus rather than bitterness. Ideal after dinner with an aged rum, amaro, or simply on its own - or just when you want chocolate to feel serious.
TIMING: We don't believe anyone should wait too long for chocolate and aim to have your chocolate packaged and shipped within 1-2 business days. The sooner the better as far as we're concerned :)
SHIPPING TIMES: Standard shipping typically takes between 2-7 days. Exact time will depend on the courier, and whilst we can't guarantee any exact time as it's out of our hands, experience tells us it's more likely to be 2-3 days in most cases.
THE SNAILIEST SNAIL MAIL: As a heads up, sending to a PO Box, parcel locker or similar, will often be slower as we can't use courier services and have to rely on Australia Post, who can be pretty slow at times.
EXPRESS POST: If you need your chocolate urgently, because sometimes that's a thing in life, please select Express Post at checkout, or get in touch to check how we can help.
HOT WEATHER POLICY: Please note, if the temperature is soaring we may withhold sending your chocolate for a day or two to ensure it doesn't arrive a melted mess. We'll keep you posted if that's a case, but please refer to our hot weather policy, or get in touch with any questions.
