Milk Chocolate Bar Jivara 40% - 2.46oz / 70g

Developed in 1995 by Valrhona, Jivara 40% chocolate is the brand's iconic milk chocolate: it caused a real revolution in milk chocolates. Iconoclastic, it was the very first milk chocolate to offer such a strong taste and a real cocoa taste.

History of the Jivara 40% milk chocolate bar

As with Guanaja 70% dark chocolate, Valrhona is changing the codes of milk chocolate and shaking up the world of pastry. This complex blend of aromatic profiles has been produced for years by Valrhona's R&D teams and guarantees a consistent taste.

Origin of the Jivara 40% milk chocolate bar

Jivara chocolate is the result of a complex blend of aromatic profiles of cocoas characteristic of Ecuador and Ghana. These profiles are assembled until reaching the constant and singular taste of this chocolate: milky and malty. Developed following numerous tests, Jivara with its intense cocoa taste, paved the way for other milky, vanilla chocolates with a powerful cocoa taste.

Tasting tips for Jivara 40% chocolate

You will experience during your tasting milky and malty notes but also vanilla notes at the end of the tasting. The complex assembly of cocoa aromatic profiles as well as Valrhona's know-how allow it to achieve a consistent and unique taste. With a good milky taste as the main note, you will discover a chocolatey sweetness that will surprise you with its intensity. This is why this bar is ideal because it remains not very sweet and perfect for fans of milk chocolate.

Elizabeth ★★★★★

I've had a lot of milk chocolate and this one is on another level. That 40% cocoa really comes through, not too sweet and the texture melts fast on the tongue. I bought two bars and the second one didn't last the week.

Avery R. ★★★★★

The 40% cocoa makes this milk chocolate taste way less sugary than the usual candy bar stuff. I broke off two squares after dinner and the vanilla note really comes through. At 70g it disappears fast, so I already ordered a couple more.

Claire ★★★★★

I bought this after reading it was a game-changer for milk chocolate when it debuted in 1995, and honestly, the 40% cocoa ratio gives it a depth that supermarket milk bars just don't have. The bar snapped cleanly and melted slowly enough that I actually savored each square.
