Rubifresco chocolate spread that is PINK

I love chocolate and I love pink so when I heard about Rubifresco’s pink chocolate spread I just had to have.

I was gifted a PR sample of Rubifresco to enjoy at home and it did not disappoint in fact it has now become my favourite chocolate spread.

Rubifresco pink chocolate spread

Founded back early 2020 Rubifresco is new to the market and are makers of pink chocolate spread which is made from ruby cocoa and all natural ingredients.

Deep from within the Amazon jungle of Ecuador you can find the ruby cocoa bean, which gives a completely new chocolate with an exquisite flavour.

Elliot the founder of Rubifresco whilst travelling around South America, he visited a cocoa farm and learned about the enchanting and rare ruby bean. Three months later, he was travelling home tucking into a popular chocolate spread and he then came up with the idea of a pink chocolate spread and this is how Rubifresco was born. Rubifresco is the world’s first pink chocolate spread.

Rubifresco is made from ruby chocolate (and a few other natural ingredients), and has no preservatives or additives. Rubifresco provides a sweet berry-like taste and an unforgettable colour that’s lusciously pink.

Pink chocolate love

Upon receiving my sample I instantly fell in love and upon opening this jar it was stunningly pink and the chocolate spread was lush giving notes of berries.

It contains 61% ruby chocolate cocoa, trimoline, butter grapeseed oil, water, and colourings E171 (natural colour whitener which is extracted from the mineral Ilmenite) & E162 (a deep red natural extract from beetroot).

Ruby cocoa beans grow in purple cocoa pods and when unprocessed they have a purple tint. The purple colour is usually lost after fermenting so a change in this process could retain the purple colour that becomes pink once mixed into the final ruby chocolate. This colour is probably from less fermenting. Because it’s a niche product ruby chocolate costs more although less work is involved. Ruby chocolate has none of the deep cacao taste you expect of chocolate.

Taste of pink chocolate

Rubifresco spread did not disappoint as it provided a sweet tasting chocolate which to me tasted a like white chocolate followed by fruitiness of raspberries and strawberries.

I used my spread to make some cupcakes and milkshake which both were so delicious.
