TAZA Fair Trade Chocolate Ice Cream

How do you spell humidity in Durham, NC?

S-U-M-M-E-R

Yep. Summer is here, and that means humidity. Here at One World Market, we are pretty positive that there is only one REAL cure for humidity:

Ice Cream!

We love hitting up Ben and Jerry’s on Broad Street. We love the support that Ben and Jerry’s gives to Fair Trade farmers and growers. All of their ingredients like sugar, vanilla, bananas, and cocoa are sourced through the Fair Trade market. Not to mention it’s just plain delicious!

However, since summer is a…..long season here in Durham, we also like to mix it up by making some frozen treats at home!

We’ve made several batches of this Taza Recipe in our Ice Cream Machine at home:

and it is out of this world tasty!

TAZA Chocolate is produced in the Dominican Republic. They partner with La Red Guaconejo, a cooperative of small-scale cacao producers in the northern part of the country, and with an independent organic farm called Hacienda Elvesia, which known for its exceptional fermenting and drying facilities.

All of the chocolate is stone ground, which is a minimal process for chocolate. This gives the chocolate an incredible texture and flavor. TAZA also keeps it simple with additives, keeping the chocolate super pure. This also makes their chocolates naturally gluten free!

Impress your friends and family with this super simple but incredibly delicious Fair Trade ice cream! They’ll think you’re an Ice Cream Pro!

And while you’re at it…bring a scoop or two to One World Market!
