Low sugar flavored bean-to-bar\"bean<\/h2>\n

UPDATE August 2023: It appears that Cacao\u2019s Meow has closed.<\/p>\n

Cacao\u2019s Meow,<\/strong>\u00a0founded in 2019 by Randal and Carolyn Collen, makes bean-to-bar chocolate from organic single-origin Forastero beans from the Bahia region of Brazil.<\/p>\n

\"Some
Some of Cacao Meow\u2019s flavored bars<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Cacao\u2019s Meow bars are unique in that they are low sugar, but taste sweeter than you would expect for 80% cacao bars. They are not no-sugar: they use a combination of organic coconut sugar and organic cane sugar, plus a small amount of monk fruit extract to enhance the sweetness so their 80% tastes more like a 70% cacao bar.<\/p>\n

Their bars also come in a variety of interesting flavor combinations, such as fig & sea salt, apricot ginger pecan, and lemon mulberry.<\/p>\n

Cacao\u2019s Meow currently sells their bars\u00a0online and in over 40 SFBA stores, such as Oliver\u2019s Market<\/a>, Andronico\u2019s, and Rainbow Grocery in SF. Visit their website for more information.<\/p>\n

CBTB tip<\/h3>\n

If you want to try a variety of their flavors, they offer a discount on online orders of 6 or more bars.<\/p>\n
