Wholesale matcha for chocolate makers

Develop your next matcha bar, truffle or filling with Japanese matcha chosen for your recipe. We supply matcha powder to chocolatiers, confectionery businesses and food manufacturers across the UK, from first trials to repeat production.

Our matcha comes from a fifth-generation family tea farm in Shizuoka and is milled and packed in Japan, with a product specification and a Certificate of Analysis for every batch.

Choosing a grade

Culinary or premium matcha for chocolate?

Your chocolate base, filling and flavour balance should guide the choice. Samples in the finished product tell you more than a grade name.

The grade name can't tell you how your product will turn out, so compare samples in the same recipe. Order ceremonial and premium samples from a free trade account; culinary matcha is by enquiry.

Development

Choose matcha around your chocolate recipe

  • White chocolate bars and coatings: compare premium and culinary for the balance of sweetness, tea flavour and colour you want.
  • Truffles, ganache and filled chocolates: judge the matcha in the whole product, shell and filling together.
  • Milk and dark chocolate: check the matcha still comes through alongside the cocoa. A stronger grade may suit, but it needs a production trial.

What to check during development

  • Tea flavour, sweetness and any bitterness in the finished chocolate.
  • Colour in the finished product and its packaging.
  • Dispersion, mouthfeel and any effect on your usual processing.
  • Results after setting and over your intended storage period.
  • Matcha cost per bar, truffle or saleable unit.

Matcha is supplied as a powder ingredient: your own trials set the inclusion level, the process and the finished specification.
