Taza Chocolate Debuts Two New Stone Ground Chocolate Bars

Somerville, MA —  Taza Chocolate, a pioneering bean-to-bar maker of organic stone ground chocolate, will debut two irresistible new Amaze Bars at Natural Products Expo West Booth #1691.

80% Dark Coconut Almond is a delicious new addition to Taza’s lineup of high-intensity bars.  It brings the total count of Taza bars with 80% cacao or higher to eight!  “Our unique stone ground process makes very dark chocolate taste incredibly good,” said Taza founder Alex Whitmore. “We do much less processing, which preserves the natural fruity notes of our cacao beans, so we don’t need to load our bars up with sugar. Our darkest chocolates taste bright and bold, not bitter.”  Taza’s organic 80% dark chocolate paired with delicious, nutritious coconut and toasted almonds make this bar the perfect healthy indulgence.

70% Dark Espresso Buzz brings everyone’s two favorite pick-me-ups together! Dark chocolate is a natural source of energy-boosting theobromine, and Taza gives it an extra lift with whole roasted espresso beans. “We’re all about creating a bold chocolate experience,” said Whitmore. “Whole organic espresso beans give this bar off-the-charts coffee flavor and a seriously satisfying crunch. It will definitely wake up your tastebuds!”

With the launch of the Amaze Bar line in 2014, Taza has become one of the fastest growing Natural chocolate brands.  The seven additional Amaze Bars currently available in stores nationwide are Sea Salt & Almond; Coconut; Cacao Crunch; Toffee Sea Salt & Almond; Maple Pecan; Raspberry Crunch; and 95% Wicked Dark.

All Taza Chocolate products are Certified USDA Organic, Direct Trade Certified, Non-GMO Project Verified, Certified Gluten Free, dairy free, soy free, vegan, and kosher. Visit the Taza team and sample the new bars at Natural Products Expo West Booth #1691, Anaheim Convention Center, Anaheim, CA from March 10-12, 2017.
