An American Artisan: The Scharffen Berger Chocolate Maker Story
America's first contemporary artisan chocolate manufacturer, SCHARFFEN BERGER Chocolate Maker set out to craft the richest, most flavorful chocolate by sourcing the best cacao in the world and blending it in small batches using vintage equipment.
SCHARFFEN BERGER Chocolate Maker was founded in 1997 by chocolate connoisseur Robert Steinberg and winemaker John Scharffenberger. The pair tested multiple combinations before perfecting a unique blend that highlighted the true flavor of cacao instead of masking it with sugar and other flavors. The result is an array of truly distinctive chocolates with balance and complexity — not unlike those found in exceptional wines.
As the first American "bean-to-bar" chocolate manufacturer in over 50 years, SCHARFFEN BERGER Chocolate Maker led this country's contemporary resurgence in artisan chocolate-making. It was also the first chocolate maker to label their chocolate with the percentage of cacao inside.
Today, SCHARFFEN BERGER Chocolate Maker travels the world to source the finest cacao. We select the best beans from small sustainable farms in fabled cacao-producing countries: Madagascar, Indonesia, Trinidad, Venezuela, Brazil, Guatemala, Vietnam, Grenada, Paupua New Guinea, Bali, Ghana and Peru. Of the more than 150 samples we taste each year, only a select few are chosen to become SCHARFFEN BERGER Chocolate. Beans from each region are picked for their unique flavor characteristics, and our roasting parameters are specially developed for each origin to bring out the best in each flavor. We blend these freshly roasted beans to produce our signature flavors, balanced and complex, highlighting the true, rich flavors of cacao.
This artisan process, honed with a wine-maker's attention to craftsmanship, results in the richest, most flavorful chocolate you've ever tasted.

Okay, I will admit I tasted this right off the bar and it was really, really good. I really think this is one of the best tasting chocolates for cooking I have come across. It melts easily and you can use it to create such wonderful chocolate dishes. A little goes a long way because the taste is so rich. It is satisfying and puts you on a whole new level if you are most familiar with run of the mill type chocolate brands (some of the more mass produced brands). I absolutely love the fact that the ingredients list is so simple: cacao beans; sugar; cocoa butter; non-GMO soy lecithin; whole vanilla beans. This really is an amazing artisan chocolate experience and I am glad I had it. Will definitely be purchasing these in the future as well - can't wait to test out some new recipes using it! 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: Beats my old favorite for eating out of hand, By This review is from: Scharffen Berger Semisweet (62% Cacao) Bar, 3-Ounce Packages (Pack of 6) (Grocery) Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program ( What's this?) I jumped at the opportunity to test Scharffen Berger chocolate, as I was interested in comparing it to my go-to chocolates, which are Ghirardelli 60% for eating and Callebaut Dark 60% for baking. My original plan was to try three bars as eating chocolate and three in baking.Ahem. Well, I didn't get around to the baking part. This is a fantastic chocolate for eating out of hand, though! It's very creamy and has a very faint undertone of cherry--not obtrusive, just enough to deepen the chocolate flavor. These bars are only 3 ounces (as compared to the 4-ounce bars that Ghirardelli makes). They are scored in half and then each half is scored diagonally into quarters,... Read more Is there anyone who doesn't like this?, This review is from: Scharffen Berger Semisweet (62% Cacao) Bar, 3-Ounce Packages (Pack of 6) (Grocery) Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program ( What's this?) It's just the best chocolate, ever. My only complaint is that because of the high quality, the cost is too high for me to buy it exclusively for baking and general use. I would if I could, though. Everything about it is perfect--complex flavor, smooth texture, melts well...it's great. For a real treat, try chopping some up and whisking it into about a cup of gently warmed milk, for a rich hot cocoa similar to the "drinking chocolate" you can get at some cafes. Great stuff. |
