Portola Coffee Roasters and Valenza Chocolatier introduce MOCHA BOMBS
02.15.21
Portola Coffee Roasters has teamed up with Valenza Chocolatier to create a “grown up” version of the currently trending Hot Chocolate Bomb. Their collaboration MOCHA BOMB combines fine chocolate with Portola's soluble coffee (Terra Incognito Espresso) equivalent to a double shot of espresso to let coffee lovers experience Portola’s leveled-up Mocha at home!
Each Mocha Bomb features single bean origin, fair trade 62% dark chocolate from Venezuela and is hand painted by local Master Chocolatier Amy Jo Pedone, making it a perfect gift for Valentine’s Day, Galentine’s Day, or an anytime treat for yourself!
The Mocha Bombs are available through February 28, 2021 online at portolacoffee.com and at Portola Coffee Roasters locations inside The OC Mix at SoCo Collection in Costa Mesa, and inside Union Market at The District in Tustin.
