Summary

01It all starts with some simple, natural, high-grade ingredients: sunflower seeds, sugar, and plant-based fats.02Our sunflower seeds pass an innovative fermentation-like process based on ancient beer brewing technology; afterwards, the crops are gently roasted.03The roasted ingredients are ground into a concentrate that comes quite close to cocoa powder: rich in flavours and full of typical chocolatey aromas.04We mix the ChoViva concentrate with more ingredients, grind the mass again (and again), add plant-based fats and conche the mix to finally get the perfect creamy and smooth texture. Now, ChoViva is ready to be further processed just like conventional chocolate.
