From Bean to Bar: The Naive Process

At the heart of Naive Chocolate's success is its dedication to bean-to-bar process. For years, Domantas Uzpalis has been sourcing fine cacao and wild organic ingredients from the best farmers and suppliers in Lithuania and around the world. Unlike many commercial chocolate makers, Naive controls every step of the production process, from roasting the beans to molding the final product.
What sets Naive apart is Domantas' belief in working directly with producers, not just middlemen. This close connection with farmers allows Naive to create exceptional chocolate from the very start of the process. The more unique the location of the cacao, the better the result, according to Domantas.

A Palette of Flavors

Naive Chocolate's adventurous approach to flavors is truly what makes it stand out. The company offers an impressive range of chocolate varieties:
Local Lithuanian Ingredients: Chocolate infused with porcini mushrooms or kefir, celebrating the rich culinary traditions of Lithuania.
Exotic Flavors: Bars featuring unusual ingredients like tahini or durian, appealing to the adventurous foodie.
Nano-lots Collection: A special line of chocolate made from extremely rare cacao beans, offering unique and exclusive taste experiences.
All ingredients used by Naive are grown using biodynamic practices, ensuring they complement the high-end chocolate perfectly. In a unique approach, all ingredients are freeze-dried before being mixed with the cacao. This process results in bars with silky smooth textures that carry distinct aromas, bringing the tasting experience to new heights.

Our chocolate makers proudly refrain from using any artificial stabilizers or preservatives in their products, making their creations more temperature-sensitive compared to other premium chocolates.

To ensure the optimal taste experience, it's advisable to store our chocolates in a cool, dry place where the temperature hovers between 16°C and 18°C. Please refrain from refrigerating our chocolates, as this may cause sugar crystallization due to increased humidity, altering their texture and flavor.

On the contrary, if stored in excessively high temperatures, cocoa butter may separate and form a white film on the chocolate's surface. This loss of cocoa butter can lead to the chocolate drying out and, consequently, a potential alteration in flavor. Your mindful storage practices will help preserve the integrity of our delectable chocolates.
