Farro is an ancient Italian grain, incorporated here in puffed form. This premium delight hails from the famous chocolate-making city of Perugia. Perugia, located in Umbria, is famous for chocolate thanks to Perugina, a large chocolate maker located there since 1922. Terre Umbre's chocolates contain no palm oil, a saturated fat that is a good filler for lesser chocolates because it is relatively flavorless and remains solid at room temperature. Believe it or not, including palm oil (or alternatively coconut oil) in chocolate bar manufacturing is extremely common. In fact, the only ingredients in Terre Umbre's Milk Chocolate Bar with Farro are cocoa (33%), sugar, whole milk powder, cocoa butter, puffed farro (3.5%), soy lecithin (emulsifier) and natural vanilla flavor. This artisan chocolate bar is hand-packed in a beautifully printed paper envelope.Terre Umbre is well known and appreciated in Umbria for the quality of its products.
