Independent UK chocolatiers Cocoa Canopy is upping the drinking chocolate category with a new range that crafts unique fine chocolate beads, for a superior, more intense drink.

The Surrey company’s range is crafted for enjoying hot or iced; from decadent Rich Dark to classic Smooth Milk, adventurous drinking chocolate fans can also explore the on-trend Salted Caramel and luscious ‘Milk & Dark’ varieties. 

All five varieties offer brilliant versatility – simply swirl together with hot water or warm milk for a traditional cup or enjoy over ice as an alternative to coffee. Tried and tested with all varieties of milk, Cocoa Canopy says two of the range are also vegan friendly – Rich Dark and Ecuador Dark.

The beads’ possibilities don’t end there – perfect as a cocktail or dessert ingredient for mousses, souffles, ganaches and ice creams, for example.

Cocoa Canopy is Rainforest Alliance certified, and part of the Cocoa Horizons sustainability scheme, which protects and improves the livelihoods and self-sustainability of cocoa farmers and their communities.

It said all five blends in the Cocoa Canopy range are made with sustainably sourced cocoa, each variety is palm oil free and all packaging is 100% compostable, including the inner bag.
