2. Scrap & Chocolate

Its delicious chocolates made with white cacao from Piura, from the La Quemazón area, have won several international competitions. This chocolate that melts immediately after entering the mouth, is prepared in Lima with the art of Carmen de Siancas from Piura, creator of the Scrap & Chocolates brand. Absolutely the entire process is handmade, from preparing the chocolate to the final presentation.

Carmen de Siancas started at the chocolate shop about ten years ago. Her training is a nursing technician and as a hobby she liked to prepare chocolates to give away and sell to her Maternity colleagues. Over time, she specialized and investigated, and she found in Piura’s white cacao the ideal fruit to prepare her delicious creations.

“Investigating and testing, I came to know that the Cocoa and Chocolate Show was held in Peru. I traveled to Piura and found that my grandmother on my mother’s side planted cocoa in La Quemazón,” she tells us. That’s how she decided to carry out the venture Scrap & Chocolates in partnership with their daughters.

“Piura’s white cacao is one of the finest in the world,” says Carmen, proud of her products. “It has been recognized in Europe where cocoa contests are held and it has always occupied the top positions. The particularity of this fine grain is that its almonds, as its name suggests, are white”, whereas the cocoa that we normally know has purple almonds. “What does the white almond contribute to a fine chocolate? It is so soft that it provides notes of nuts, brown sugar, flowers, fruit, they are soft, no matter how high the percentage of cocoa you find in a bar, it will not taste bitter, it will be subtle. Up to 85% can be eaten pure”, affirms the creator of the brand.

For Easter they have beautiful presentations of individual eggs and premium boxes with eggs wrapped in fabrics in the shape of limited edition bunny ears. There are 4 flavors: milk chocolate with almonds, mint, freeze-dried strawberry and an incredible salted caramel. Her daughter, Adela Siancas, is in charge of the designs to wrap the delicious eggs and keep them rigorously stored. She herself wraps them one by one. They have two presentations: individual eggs wrapped in an eco-friendly napkin so that when the children or adults who eat the egg are finished, they can be easily cleaned. And some premium boxes with the 4 flavors wrapped in handmade cloth.
