WASHINGTON — As if milk, dark and white chocolate weren’t enough! A chocolate maker claims to have come up with a fourth type: Ruby chocolate.
Barry Callebaut says the reddish-colored chocolate is made from the Ruby cocoa bean, which lends its “berry-fruitiness” and color to Ruby chocolate. The chocolate is described as being fruity, smooth and intense — though no berry flavor or color is added artificially.
Ruby chocolate was revealed at a special event on Sept. 5 in Shanghai, China. Watch the above video for more about the new confection.
