Most chocolate covered almonds drown the nut in cheap, over-sweet coating. Ours does the opposite. The 87% cacao dark chocolate shell is the same stone ground dark chocolate we grind for some of our darkest bars: intense, fruity, and deliberately gritty, made on hand-carved granite millstones at our factory in Somerville, MA. Because the chocolate is dark, the whole snack carries just 3 grams of sugar per serving, which is why it is keto-friendly. The almond inside stays whole and freshly roasted, so every bite is filled with crunch and real cacao.

Our cacao is Direct Trade Certified (Taza was the first U.S. chocolate maker to build a third-party-audited Direct Trade program) and we pay our partner farmers above Fair Trade prices. The almonds are organic. The cane sugar is organic. There’s organic cocoa butter, and nothing else. No soy lecithin, no artificial flavors. You can see who grows our cacao and what we pay them in our annual Transparency Report.

A small handful is a real snack: crunch, protein, fiber, and bold dark chocolate, without the sugar crash. Eat them after dinner for dessert. Chop a few over yogurt or ice cream. Add them to a trail mix. Set a bowl out alongside a glass of red wine or a stout.

Intense, fruity 87% dark chocolate up front. Deep, toasty roasted almond in the middle. A crispy crunch , then a satisfyingly gritty finish from the stone grinding. That texture is the cacao telling you it hasn’t been over-refined.

This is a serious dark chocolate, not a sweet candy almond. At 87% cacao with 3 grams of sugar per serving, it’s built for people who truly love dark chocolate and want a keto-friendly snack that tastes like cacao, not candy coating.
