Tree Hugger Chaga
Ingredients:
Mixed origin ethically sourced cocoa beans and cocoa butter, Riverside maple sugar (Glenmont, NY), Chaga mushroom powder (Oregon, USA).
Miss Flower taught us the importance of befriending trees: they are literally the lungs of Earth. Each ingredient in this bar originated in bark: chaga from birch, sugar from maple and beans from Theobroma cacao. With a blend of earthy Nicaraguan and nutty Peruvian cacao, we wanted to highlight the smoky, caramel-quality of maple sugar and chaga–both of which are abundantly available in the Adirondacks. We added chaga for its rich supply of immune-boosting chemicals, thought to be effective in managing cancer-cells. So take a big, deep breath and go hug a tree: we all share the same roots!
