Plantation Maralumi Noir 64% — TREAT

Munch or Dump rates Plantation Maralumi Noir 64% by Michel Cluizel TREAT — score 45/90.

A genuinely clean single-origin dark chocolate: just cocoa, sugar, cocoa butter, and real vanilla. It's still sugar-and-fat-heavy indulgence, but there's nothing engineered hiding in here.

Why this verdict

• Sugar is the #2 ingredient it's an indulgence, not a health food
• Only 4 ingredients, all recognizable no emulsifiers or additives
• Pure cocoa butter, no soy lecithin or cheap fat substitutes
• Real Bourbon vanilla pod, not artificial vanillin
• Sugar and fat heavy, so calorie-dense keep it to a square

Ingredients (4)

• Cocoa (safe) — Real cocoa, fine in itself and adds the chocolatey filling.
• Sugar (moderate) — Added sugar sitting ahead of cocoa; the main flavor driver here.
• Cocoa Butter (safe) — Pure cocoa fat that gives the melt and mouthfeel; calorie-dense but a natural part of chocolate.
• Bourbon vanilla pod (safe) — Real vanilla from the pod for flavor, not synthetic vanillin; negligible quantity.
