Embark on a fragrant and warming journey with our Masala Chai chocolate bar, a truly authentic taste of India. While "Chai" simply means "tea" in Hindi, this bar is a celebration of "Masala" (spiced) chai, blending richly toasted Indian spices into a malty 35% milk chocolate. 

It's an incredible snack on its own, or melt it into milk for a decadently fragrant cup of hot cocoa that warms you from the inside out.

The Story of Our Craft

A Journey of Spice and Chocolate

The word “Chai” itself is the Hindi word for “tea”, and our Masala Chai Chocolate is a tribute to the authentic spice blends of India. This bar is inspired by my Indian heritage, and the traditional method of roasting whole spices to unlock their true potential. Unlike commercial chai flavours that often rely on powdered spices, we carefully roast whole cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, and more, grinding them in a stone mill to preserve their aromatic richness. This process creates a truly genuine and balanced spice experience, reflective of the traditions I hold dear.

Ingredient Spotlight

Our spice blend features cardamom, known as the “Queen of Spices”, cinnamon for its warm sweetness, and cloves for their pungent aroma. Each spice is carefully selected and roasted to enhance its flavour profile. The careful balance is what makes this chocolate so special.

“In Indian cuisine, spice is about balance and preparation, not just adding heat. We take time to prepare our spices properly, in the traditional way.”
-Priya Winsor, Owner & Chocolatier

Flavour Profile

A Taste of India

Imagine the warm, comforting aroma of chai tea, now captured in a velvety milk chocolate. The initial sweetness of the chocolate is followed by a symphony of spices—the peppery bite of cloves, the sweet warmth of cinnamon, and the fragrant notes of cardamom. Each bite is a journey through India's bustling spice markets, a taste of home, wherever you are.
