Salt chocolate – The sweet and salty contrast of Modica tradition
Handmade in Modica
Artisanal bar with a minimum of 80% cocoa, processed at low temperatures according to the ancient Modica technique that preserves aromas and sugar crystals. The uneven surface and natural emergence of cocoa butter are distinctive signs of manual processing. The slight saltiness (salt added in micro-doses) amplifies the notes of roasted cocoa, spices and dried fruit, leaving the palate clean and prolonging the aromatic persistence.
Structured yet balanced, this chocolate is perfect for tasting and pairing (e.g. Sicilian passito wines, dry Marsala, whisky), as an ingredient in custard and namelaka, or in combination with citrus fruits, caramel and ricotta. Manual shaping ensures a robust and “crunchy” bar with the typical Modica graininess.
Antica Dolceria Bonajuto
Antica Dolceria Bonajuto (Modica, 1880) is one of Sicily’s historic chocolate shops, active for six generations. It preserves the ancient “cold” technique of Hispanic origin, handed down and updated with artisan rigour. It selects cocoa from supply chains that protect workers (no child labour) and favours essential recipes without foreign fats. Recognised by Eurispes as one of Italy’s 100 Excellence Products (2008), Bonajuto continues to combine gastronomic memory and research, offering bar after bar the unmistakable character of Modica and Sicily.
