Cacao Barry Papouasie Milk Chocolate Couverture 35%

Adventure awaits in every drop. Cacao Barry's Papouasie 35% is a single-origin milk couverture sourced exclusively from Papua New Guinea — one of the world's most intriguing and distinctive cacao-growing regions. The result is a milk chocolate that surprises and delights: familiar in its creamy sweetness, yet unmistakably different in character, with an earthy, woody complexity that sets it apart from any other milk couverture.

For pastry chefs and chocolatiers who want to offer their customers something truly unique, Papouasie is the conversation starter on any menu. Available at Nut House, delivered across the UK.

Why Professionals Choose Papouasie 35%

• Single-origin Papua New Guinea cacao: A rare and distinctive terroir that delivers flavours you simply won't find in blended milk chocolates
• Unique flavour profile: Earthy, woody, and subtly smoky — a milk chocolate with genuine character and depth
• Exceptional fluidity: High cocoa butter content for smooth tempering, enrobing, and ganache work
• A talking point: Single-origin provenance adds a compelling story to any chocolate box, dessert menu, or product range

Tasting Notes

Creamy and smooth with an earthy, woody depth and subtle smoky undertones — a distinctly different milk chocolate experience. Notes of dried fruit and a gentle spice linger on the finish. Pairs beautifully with coffee, dark caramel, vanilla, and tropical fruits.

How to Use

• Tempering: Melt to 45–50°C, cool to 26–27°C, reheat to 29–30°C — see our full tempering guide for tabling and seeding methods
• Ganaches: Use a 2:1 chocolate to cream ratio for firm truffles, or 1:1 for a silky tart filling — the earthy notes pair exceptionally well with coffee or dark caramel ganache centres
• Enrobing & moulding: Excellent fluidity for coating truffles and filling praline moulds
• Mousses & creams: Melts smoothly into whipped cream for a distinctive, complex milk chocolate mousse
• Baking: Use drops in cookies and blondies for an intriguing, earthy milk chocolate flavour
• Pairings: Outstanding with coffee, dark caramel, vanilla, coconut, and macadamia nuts
