Umami Soy Brew Chocolate Bar is crafted in collaboration with Tai Hua Food Industries, renowned for their 77-year legacy in soy sauce making. The Asian answer to classical salted caramel flavour. This chocolate bar offers a bold rich and savoury flavour derived from soy sauce, creating a one-of-a-kind taste experience that honours a household ingredient in Asian cuisine.

Enjoy the flavourful, aromatic notes of cold brew coffee infused into luxurious dark chocolate, offering a decadent treat for coffee lovers and chocolate aficionados alike.

CHOCOELF’s collaboration with Tai Hua Food Industries, Fragrance Foodstuff, and Tiong Hoe Specialty Coffee was carefully curated to ensure that each flavour complements the taste and physical characteristics of chocolate. After extensive research and development, the partners successfully integrated their respective ingredients into the chocolate bars, creating a fusion of flavours that are distinctively their own.

CHOCOELF’s aim to create a sweet-salted chocolate with the humble soybean was realised through collaboration with Tai Hua Food Industries. Tai Hua’s expertise in soy sauce making, coupled with innovative dehydration technology, resulted in a distinct rich umami flavour in the Soy Brew Chocolate Bar.

Fragrance Foodstuff’s decades of experience in producing spiced savoury meats made them the perfect partner for the Chicken Floss Chocolate Bar. After careful selection, Fragrance discovered that the soft texture of meat floss paired perfectly with milk chocolate, creating a savoury delight.

Tiong Hoe Specialty Coffee’s extensive knowledge of coffee led to the selection of the Jet Candy+ coffee roast for the Black Cold Brew Chocolate Bar. This modified roast profile, named after gemstones, complements the dark chocolate with caramel and molasses flavours along with a hint of stone fruit acidity.

From April 2024 onwards, available at CHOCOELF’s official retail distributor, The Cocoa Trees: The Best Candy Shop in Singapore, conveniently located at their 11 duty-free chocolate stores across all four terminals of Changi Airport and Taste Singapore located at T1 Changi Airport and T4 Changi Airport.
