Definite has perfectly combined the traditional Dominican dessert "Jalao" with coconut and ginger in this chocolate bar.
Description:
Jalao is a typical Dominican dessert based on coconut and ginger. As is often the case with "traditional recipes," each person uses slightly different ingredients. Grated ginger and coconut (grated or floured) are always included. Some add honey and molasses, others vanilla and brown sugar. And sometimes a little vegetable oil. Want to make it yourself?

And this jalao goes wonderfully with pure Dominican cacao. Definite proves that with this bar.
The organically grown cacao for this bar comes from Valdez Cacao . This family business has its farm in Castillo (Duarte Province). More than 60% of all Dominican cacao is grown in this region. Valdez Cacao was founded in 1961 by Porfirio Valdez. He started small, bought land with the money he earned, and slowly developed his company into one of the leading cacao farms.
Valdez Cacao is socially committed to the local population. She provides jobs, offers social services, built two aqueducts, a baseball field, and connected the elementary school to the internet.
Ingredients: Cocoa mass (60%), cane sugar, cocoa butter, coconut sugar, coconut, coconut milk, candied ginger.
