Fresco Ghana Recipes 260 and 261

This post  compares two recipes of the Ghana 68% cacao.

Recipe 260, Light Roast and Subtle Conche

This bar had a deep cacao flavor, with a molasses base. There is little bitterness to the taste. 7.7

Recipe 261, Dark Roast and Medium Conche

The cacao note is softer with this bar (than with Recipe 260). The base has moved to a caramel flavor, while the bitterness is still low. 8.3

From the Recipe 260 label:
"Our light roast combined with a subtle conche cycle highlights rich fudgy notes with an underlying sweetness reminiscent of fig jam."

From the Recipe 261 label:
"Our dark roast combined with a medium conche cycle enhances deep chocolatey and fudgy notes."
