Umberly
A small chocolate workshop in the morning: shelves of copper pots and jars of cacao, sacks of beans on the stone floor, a marble table under a tall window

Made by hand, bar by bar.

A hand tips roasted cacao beans out of a copper scoop onto the white marble

Roasted cacao

A palette knife draws melted dark chocolate across the marble in wide waves; a copper saucepan stands beside it

Worked on cold marble

A hand pours dark chocolate from the copper saucepan into a clear mould on the marble

Into the mould

Cacao, sugar, time.
