Bahen & Co

Almond & Sea Salt 75% is a 75 g bar of dark chocolate from Bahen & Co with almonds in it. The maker says the almonds are slow-roasted in olive oil from its own farm, and the bar is finished with hand-harvested sea salt. The ingredients it lists are cocoa beans, raw sugar, Margaret River olive oil, Australian almonds and Maldon sea salt.

The chocolate underneath is the maker's House Blend, which it describes as a selection of single-plantation cacaos stone-ground into a house style. The plain bars, House Blend 70% Cacao and House Blend 88% Cacao, are cocoa beans and raw sugar only. This bar adds almonds, olive oil and salt to that base. The other flavoured bar we list, Chilli and Salt, adds roasted chilli instead of nuts. Because it contains almonds, check the label if you are avoiding tree nuts.

Made by Bahen & Co, a bean-to-bar chocolate maker run by Jacqui and Josh Bahen on the family farm at Margaret River. The maker says it roasts its cacao slowly at low temperatures in a ball roaster from the 1930s, grinds the nibs with sugar in a stone melangeur from around 1910, polishes the chocolate in a vintage conche and tempers it before it is poured into moulds.

Delivery

It does not send orders on Fridays, so chocolate is not left in a depot over a weekend, and hot weather can delay delivery (shipping page, checked 13 October 2026). It offers free postage above a set order value and a handwritten gift note at checkout.
