Flavorful, feel-good dark chocolate
Darkness from ChocoSol is a pure and simple dark chocolate bar. It’s made with 75% dark chocolate and boasts with lots of complex flavors like wine, nut and even fruit. This dark chocolate bar is one of the best ways to experience the flavor of ChocoSol’s cacao blends from Mexico, the Dominican Republic, and Ecuador. Its deep dark flavor tastes great alone but also tastes great in combination with red wine. Moreover, you can grate it over your granola or fruit snack to add some chocolaty goodness.
What is stone-ground chocolate?
What makes ChocoSol’s chocolate even more special, is that it’s stone ground. This is an ancient technique used by the Aztecs and Mayans to turn cocoa beans into chocolate. During the chocolate-making process, ChocoSol roasts the cacao nibs and then hand-grinds them against Mexican stone mills. The result is a truly unconventional chocolate with an almost gritty texture. Don’t be put off by that though, the flavor is so rich, natural, and dark, that you will never crave a Hershey milk chocolate bar again.

What that means is, that they don’t just exist to make a profit but to use their profit for the greater good. They have direct trade relationships with their cocoa growers that go beyond fairtrade and organic in both growing conditions and in pricing. ChocoSol uses a unique blend of cacao varieties from indigenous communities in Mexico, Dominican Republic, and Ecuador. All of their chocolate bars are stone-ground in their own facility. Moreover, they’re all vegan, gluten-free, nut-free and soy-free.
ChocoSol also puts a great emphasis on sustainability. They have an urban community garden on the roof of their production facility. Moreover, they give workshops to teach people about chocolate making. All their chocolates are wrapped in unbleached FSC-certified paper that is 100% compostable.

At FAIR/SQUARE, we take allergen information seriously and try to be as transparent and accurate as possible. We rely on the information made available by the manufacturers and cannot guarantee accuracy under all circumstances. Manufacturers, e.g., might change recipes or production facilities without notifying us. If you have serious and/or life-threatening allergies, please always double check with the manufacturer.
About our allergen icons
We have introduced allergen icons In order for you to quickly grasp what allergens a product contains or not contains.- If you see the "gluten-free" icon, it means the manufacturer produces this product in a gluten-free facility and cross-contamination is not possible.
- If an allergen icon is not visible, it does not necessarily mean that that allergen is present, but that there is risk for cross-contamination because the product has been made in a facility that makes other products with this allergen.
Vegan-certified vs. vegan-friendly products
All products sold at FAIR/SQUARE are free from animal-derived ingredients and have never been tested on animals (cruelty-free).- Some products that we sell are vegan-certified. This means that they have been made in a production facility dedicated to vegan products.
- Many products are "accidentally vegan" or vegan-friendly. This means they do not contain ingredients of animal origin but they have been made in a facility that makes other products containing animal-derived ingredients such as milk, eggs etc.
- Due to allergy concerns, vegan-friendly products will show a warning label reading "may contain milk or eggs". Again, it does not mean milk or eggs are in the product, but there's a slight chance of cross-contamination.
