70% Cocoa Stevia Sweetened Pure Dark with Elderberry Fruit Cadenza Chocolate Bar
The product: Stevia Sweetened, No Sugar Added, 70% Cocoa,
Cadenza Dark Chocolate Bar with Elderberry – but the challenge
is to tell you about elderberry and why we have chosen to combine
elderberries with our delicious Dark Chocolate. Many people may
not have a taste reference for elderberries. A easy comparison is
blueberries:  not the usual commercial product but rather
magnificent high-bush blueberries, small with vital flavor. The
elderberry taste in our Cadenza bar is similar, but in fact is even
more flavorful, which when combined with our 70% Cocoa Dark
Chocolate Sweetened with Stevia yields a wonderful balance: tart
round berry taste with mouth-filling chocolate, incredibly satisfying.

The combination brings additional health benefits to this Cadenza
bar: as always we emphasize both taste and health.  
The
elderberry “has nearly five times the level of anthocyanins (natural
antioxidants) of the blueberry!” and that it “has twice the overall
antioxidant capability of the cranberry!“  The elderberry may not
be well-known but its health effects have been thoroughly
investigated and documented! Comparative antioxidant levels of
fruit are discussed
here (elderberry is a star!) and detailed
references to the health benefits of elderberries are
here. Each
bar contains more than 500 milligrams of elderberries. The
antioxidant level (ORAC) of the elderberries we use has been
verified by Brunswick Labs, an independent testing laboratory.
