COFFEE. CHOCOLATE. BETTER TOGETHER.

 

Kona Coffee… good; chocolate… also good; the two together… great! Our Kona Mocha Shortbreads prove just that. These remarkable cookies have returned to our stores and our website in two new Small Gift Box options: Non-Dipped and as a (Milk Chocolate and Dark Chocolate) Dipped Combo.

Chocolate and coffee have long been used in conjunction, particularly in dessert recipes, because each brings out the best in the other. (Aww… how sweet is that?!) This delicious duo works well together due to their complementary flavor profiles. For example, the naturally bitter notes in coffee can actually enhance the “sweetness” of creamy milk chocolate, or amplify the “boldness” of a rich dark chocolate.

For our Kona Mocha Shortbreads (and all of our products really) quality ingredients matter. Take the coffee component, for instance: Seeing as Big Island Candies is based here on the Big Island of Hawaii, we are in close proximity to some of the most renowned coffee regions in the world, which is why Kona Coffee is an ingredient. (For more information about Kona Coffee, its rich history, and what makes it so incredibly special, check out our Blog post, “Not Your Average Beverage.”)

To taste just how good—no, great—these shortbreads are, or to give them as a gift to a coffee and/or chocolate connoisseur, place your order for our Kona Mocha Shortbread or Kona Mocha Shortbread Dipped Combo.
