  • WHY THIS SONG AND OUR CHOCOLATE BELONG TOGETHER

    Avery is an incredible local talent. Her voice is a powerhouse, and her songwriting is top-notch. This track has some heavy themes, which blend with the fact that our Peruvian bar is our darkest offering. However, the Peruvian cacao is bright! It’s bouncy! It makes your eyes widen and your head perk up. That’s exactly what the bright, plucky strings do in the tune Nothing Changes. You can’t help but start to bob your head. It’s a dark song but plucky and bright, just like our bar.

The Music:

We know, we know—you want to dive into the chocolate first. But we suggest starting with the music.

  • First, scroll back up and click the Spotify link we provided. The song is also available on Apple Music.

  • Treat yourself! Put on some headphones. Don’t listen to the song through your phone’s speakers. Artists put so much work into the mix—the sound of the guitars, the placement of the drums, how the vocals dance with the harmonies. With headphones, you’ll be able to hear all those beautiful subtleties. And trust us—Avery has packed her music with endless details that elevate every note.

  • Her voice is amazing, isn’t it?! Okay, now for your chocolate…

The Chocolate:

  • Just like you took your time with the music, take your time with the chocolate.

  • Start by breaking off a small piece from the corner and chewing it. This is just to familiarize your palate with the flavor. It’s okay to swallow this part quickly—think of it like tuning your instrument.

  • Now, take another small bite, but this time, let it melt. Slow down. Let the chocolate move around your palate.

  • This chocolate bar is bright! It’s fruity. It makes your eyebrows raise and your eyes widen. You can’t help but move a bit when eating this bar. You might even let out a “oh dang!”.

  • All of these reasons are why we think it pairs perfectly with Avery’s music—especially the song Nothing Changes. This song is punchy yet smooth. The plucking of the guitars and strings makes your shoulders bounce.

  • You hear that harp at 1:13? We love that part!

  • Anyway—this song beautifully balances bright tones with rich, warm bass frequencies, just like our bar.

  • Our bar is 80%—that’s a high percentage for a chocolate bar! Yet despite its strong low end, she’s still bright and plucky.

  • Now, go explore more of Avery’s music, and keep indulging in the rest of your chocolate bar.
