Temper Temper

House Dark 70% is Temper Temper's signature dark chocolate, made from single-origin cacao grown on São Tomé, the island off the coast of West Africa. The maker lists it as gluten free and vegan, and says its rich flavour comes from that single origin. The bar is 50 g.

The maker's FAQ says vegan chocolate has no dairy, no honey and no animal input of any kind, and that none of its dark chocolates contain dairy. The milk counterpart, House Milk 40%, does contain milk powder. Temper Temper also coats figs and almonds in its chocolate: Coated Figs and Coated Almonds.

Made by Temper Temper, two chocolatiers, Roz and Georgia, who run shops in Cowaramup and Margaret River.
