help Vesta Chocolate FAQ
Where is Vesta Chocolate made?
Vesta Chocolate is a bean-to-bar maker based in Montclair, New Jersey. The company produces chocolate from cacao beans in-house rather than simply melting commercial couverture into new shapes.
What does bean-to-bar mean for a Vesta Chocolate bar?
It means the maker controls steps such as roasting, cracking, winnowing, grinding, refining, and tempering the cacao. That process lets Vesta adjust its methods to the character of beans from a particular farm, country, or harvest.
Why can two Vesta single-origin bars with the same cacao percentage taste different?
Cacao genetics, fermentation, drying, roasting, and growing region all influence flavor independently of percentage. One 70% bar may taste fruity or floral while another at 70% can lean toward nuts, earth, or deep roast.
Should a Vesta Chocolate bar be refrigerated?
Usually no, because refrigeration can expose chocolate to condensation and surrounding odors. Store it tightly wrapped in a cool, dry, dark place, then let a chilled bar return to room temperature before opening if refrigeration is unavoidable.
