The chocolate boasts Cacao Fine de Aroma flavor notes along with a balanced caramel taste, which is achieved using caramelized milk. This creates a classic flavor that's sweet with a velvety finish to call to mind regional treats from Columbia like manjar blanco and arequipe. When used as a base, the chocolate is perfect for baking, snacking and confectionery applications, and is said to pair perfectly with inclusions like [sea salt or hazelnuts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/milk-chocolate-pecan-caramel-crunch). The Luker Chocolate Caramelo 33% caramel chocolate couverture is being launched for worldwide availability and is available for direct purchase in the UK online.
