ALLEGRETTO CHOCOLATES

We believe Chocolate is like music for the palate and the soul! We produce artesian chocolates from fine cacao beans to the complete chocolate bar.

The love for chocolate and the passion to mindfully elevate flavors by using pure ingredients are the pillars of Allegretto.

Single Origin Fine Cacao

A selection of fine cacao beans from top cacao producer regions provides our unique flavor and bouquet experiences. After studying, tasting, and comparing different chocolates from around the world, Allegretto selection is focused on the Caribbean, Central and South America regions.

After all, Cacao was borne in the tropics of the Americas so you can’t beat that heritage.

Fine chocolate does not need added flavorings, hydrogenated oils, or tons of sugar to mask the acidity of bulk/low quality cacao beans typically used in commercial chocolate.  Allegretto Dark 70% contains only fine cacao and the right amount of sweetener.  Allegretto Milk is processed the same way and we just add high quality plant-based milk.

Less Ingredients Is More quality

Bean-to-Bar in Small Batches

As boutique chocolate makers we craft our chocolate bars of 50gr and 15gr in small batches to control quality in every step.  Our fine cacao beans are treated carefully throughout the different production stages: sorting, roasting, grinding and tempering.

Allegretto believes that indulgence can be taken up a notch in health.      Looking for a more natural, less processed sweetener, we discovered sweeteners that improve chocolate flavor (dates and coconut sugar).  Our signature formulations add flavor and nutrition while providing a better alternative to refined sugars used in commercial chocolates.
