The São Tomé Dark Chocolate Spread with Blueberry and Liqueur Wine is an explosion of flavors that captivates with its intensity and sophistication. On tasting, the first note is São Tomé dark chocolate with 70% cocoa — bitter and deep, with hints of coffee and dark fruits. Immediately after comes the intense freshness of blueberry, a fruit with a sweet, slightly acidic, and vibrant flavor that blends with the density of the chocolate, creating an irresistible contrast. The Port wine, both liqueur-like and elegant, adds warmth, complexity, and a velvety finish with notes of vanilla, making this experience even more memorable.
The balance between the bitterness of cocoa, the fruity freshness of blueberry, and the vinous sweetness of Port wine results in a unique spread, internationally awarded the title of “Best Taste” at the Great Taste Awards in the United Kingdom in 2017. It is a combination that embodies the essence of fine gastronomy: intensity, freshness, and sophistication united in a single tasting.
Versatile and refined, this spread can be enjoyed in different ways. Spread on multigrain bread, artisanal croissants, or oat cookies, it transforms breakfast or snack time into a true gourmet moment. As a filling for macarons, chocolate cakes, or mascarpone- and quark-based desserts, it elevates classic recipes like tiramisù to new dimensions. It also works exceptionally well in cheesecakes and pavlovas, where blueberry and chocolate create a perfect balance between freshness and intensity.
As a topping, it is irresistible on American, oat, or banana pancakes, waffles, or bubble waffles, and even on red fruit cakes, where the flavors harmoniously complement each other. For more daring palates, it is surprisingly delicious in meat fondues with game, roasted duck, foie gras, or wild boar, creating an intense and unforgettable sweet-and-savory contrast.
Handcrafted without additives or dyes, this spread is 100% natural and packaged in recycled and recyclable aluminum tubes, reflecting a commitment to authenticity and sustainability. More than just a sweet treat, it is a celebration of the Flavors of Portugal, where São Tomé cocoa meets Portuguese blueberry and the nobility of liqueur wine.
