Modica Chocolate with Carob
Our Modica Chocolate with Carob is cold-processed following the ancient Aztec tradition that makes Modica unique in the world of chocolate, bearing the IGP certification as a guarantee of authenticity. We enrich it with carob flour from centuries-old trees on our estate on the hills of Ragusa, in the Iblean lands. Low-temperature processing preserves the characteristic sugar granularity and unleashes a mosaic of flavours: intense cocoa merges with the sweet, toasted and lightly caramelised notes of carob. It melts slowly on the palate revealing a rare complexity, perfect enjoyed on its own, paired with aged cheeses or crumbled over artisan gelato. An unparalleled product that unites two Iblean territorial excellences in a single bar.

Modica Chocolate and Carob Affogato
Roughly chop the Modica carob chocolate and melt it over a bain-marie. Pour the melted chocolate over a scoop of vanilla or almond gelato and finish with a shot of hot espresso. A dessert that marries the granular texture of Modica chocolate with the natural sweetness of carob.
Chocolate and Sicilian Cheese Pairing
Break the Modica carob chocolate bar into irregular shards and pair with a board of aged Sicilian cheeses: Ragusano DOP, pecorino and Madonie provola. Complete with Iblean honey and walnuts. A refined aperitif or dessert course that highlights flavour contrasts.
