Pink Sea Salt
A ROCK SOLID CLASSIC
A fruity, complex salted dark chocolate to end all salted dark chocolates. Made with single origin cacao from Zorzal Cacao, a farm and fermentary within a bird sanctuary in the Dominican Republic, and sprinkled with Peruvian pink salt sourced from Salt of the Earth Co. We think New York Magazine said it best: this bar has a “deep, dark, mysterious flavor with hints of cherry; and a finish as long as a David Foster Wallace footnote.”

United States United StatesSERIOUSLY the best ever!
I love this Pink Sea Salt Dark Chocolate & full disclosure, usually don’t even like dark chocolate. We had it served on a Charcuterie Board at a winery & were all obsessed. I kept the wrapper, went to website & ordered that evening.

United StatesExcellent chocolate!
My experience with Raaka Chocolate has been great. Great products, service and fast shipping. I do have one request however . . . . a couple years ago you had a dark chocolate coffee bar. I really with you'd bring that back. --- Fred
United StatesThe Perfect Chocolate Bar
I'll begin by saying I take my chocolate very seriously. When my favorite chocolate bar company went out of business 4 years ago—I wept. I had spent months searching for the perfect bar and now I was forced to start over. Taste testing high quality chocolate bars may not sound like a horrible task, but the cost can really put a dent in your finances and I was shocked at how bad a lot of them tasted! I also wanted pure organic ingredients, low sugar content and less than 300 calories per bar—because I don't eat just 1/2 a bar at a time! Raaka's Pink Sea Salt bar hit all the check marks. Well . . . almost. I was looking for 72% cacao and theirs is only 71%—hardly worth quibbling about. ;)
