How We Make Our Award-Winning Hot Chocolate

Bean-to-Bar Chocolate

The foundation of our hot chocolate mix is … CHOCOLATE!

We make our dark chocolate from bean-to-bar, and grate it into a fine powder that melts easily in hot milk.

Organic Cacao Powder

The next ingredient is CACAO POWDER! We directly source an intensely chocolatey, organic cacao powder from Peru. The cacao powder intensifies the chocolate flavor.

Organic Powdered Sugar

Third, we use POWDERED SUGAR, which mixes smoothly into hot milk, and adds a balanced amount of sweetness – our hot chocolate is not too bitter and not too sweet. This finely milled organic sugar includes a bit of tapioca starch, which acts as a thickener, contributing to a velvety, rich, close-your-eyes-and-sigh texture.

Sea Salt

Finally, our hot chocolate mix includes a touch of SEA SALT, which enhances and balances all the flavors in the beverage. The salt is sourced locally from Asheville-based Celtic Sea Salt.

How to Make the Perfect Cup

Step 1

In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup (4 Tbsp) of mix & 3/4 cup (6 oz) of milk of choice.

Step 2

Over medium heat, bring to simmer while stirring occasionally.

Step 3

When it reaches a simmer (bubbles around the edge), simmer & whisk vigorously for 15 sec to incorporate.

Step 4

Pour into mug. Let sit one minute to thicken. Enjoy!

French Broad Chocolates Values

Chocolate is the heart of our business, and we can’t make awesome chocolate without awesome cacao! We nurture meaningful, long-term relationships with fine quality cacao producers.

At our Chocolate Factory in Asheville, NC, our skilled chocolate makers transform fine flavor cacao into delicious bean-to-bar chocolate in a complex, multi-day artisan process.

We roast the cacao beans to express their unique flavor (yes, it smells amazing here!), then we winnow (separate the seed from husk), mill, refine, temper, and deposit the chocolate, which becomes the base of our hot chocolate.

We are people using business (and chocolate!) as a force for good. We hold ourselves to rigorous standards of social and environmental performance, accountability and transparency.
