Three jars. One Sicilian pantry.

Pistachio, gianduia, hazelnut and carob. Three small jars, three big nut percentages, zero palm oil.

The easiest way to taste the whole spread range, or to gift one to someone who deserves it. All organic, all Sicilian, all clean-label.

What's inside. One 50g jar of each: 45% pistachio, 53% hazelnut gianduia, and 51% hazelnut and Sicilian carob. Three different flavor stories, one consistent philosophy.

From the same kitchen as the chocolate. Ciokarrua works in Modica, Sicily, sourcing pistachios, hazelnuts, and carob from short-chain Sicilian growers. No palm oil, no milk, no lecithin in any jar.

Terra Sacra Field Notes — Health Properties

  • Heart-friendly fats. Pistachios and hazelnuts are rich in monounsaturated fats and vitamin E, both linked to cardiovascular and skin support in research.
  • High plant protein and fiber. All three jars carry meaningful nut content, more protein and fiber than typical sweet spreads.
  • Carob, naturally caffeine-free. The hazelnut-carob jar offers an evening-friendly, stimulant-free alternative to chocolate spreads.
  • Lutein and antioxidants. Pistachios are notable for lutein and zeaxanthin, carotenoids associated with eye and skin support.
  • Clean label. No palm oil, no emulsifiers, no milk powder. Just nuts, sugar, and the occasional pinch of cocoa or carob.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Modica chocolate unlike any other chocolate?
Everything about it. Modica PGI chocolate uses a cold-processing method — cacao worked at temperatures never exceeding 40–45°C — that dates to Aztec tradition and arrived in Sicily via the Spanish in the 16th century. At those temperatures, the sugar never dissolves. The crystals stay intact. The result is dry, grainy, intensely flavored chocolate with no dairy, no added cocoa butter, no lecithin, no emulsifiers. Just cacao mass and cold-process sugar, sometimes with spice. It doesn’t melt on your palm. It cracks when you break it. It melts slowly on your tongue, and you taste cocoa and sugar as genuinely separate things. It received PGI certification in 2018. All the chocolate we carry is certified organic — cacao is one of the most heavily pesticide-treated crops on earth in conventional farming, and that matters.
What is carob — and is it actually good?
Yes, actually. Carob (carruba) is the sweet pod of the carob tree, native to Sicily and the Mediterranean — and it was a Sicilian pantry staple for centuries before cacao ever arrived in Europe. Naturally sweet, caffeine-free, high in fiber, with an earthy, mild flavor that echoes chocolate without imitating it. The 1970s health-food movement turned it into a sorry substitute for chocolate, which did its reputation real damage. Made properly from quality Sicilian carruba, it tastes like itself: interesting, complex, distinctly Sicilian. Not a consolation prize. A genuinely different thing.
Dairy-free? Gluten-free? What exactly is in here?
Modica PGI chocolate is inherently dairy-free — the PGI specification bans milk, added cocoa butter, and lecithin. The bar is cacao mass and sugar. Full stop. Most carob products are also naturally dairy-free. For gluten: most are naturally gluten-free by ingredient — check individual product pages for production facility details. Everything we carry is certified organic: no synthetic pesticides, no glyphosate, independently audited supply chain. When the ingredient list is this short, the quality of each ingredient is the whole story.
