Choc Beans

Merlo choc beans combine premium coffee with high quality chocolate, creating a simple and satisfying way to enjoy both in one bite.

Each coffee bean is carefully roasted for flavour and crunch, then coated in smooth chocolate to balance bold espresso notes with sweetness. The result is a snack that delivers both taste and a subtle energy lift, making it ideal for gifting, sharing, or enjoying alongside your daily coffee.

Because these products are made with real chocolate, they are sensitive to heat. During warmer months, choc beans may be temporarily unavailable to ensure they arrive in the best possible condition and maintain their quality from dispatch to delivery.

FAQs

Not exactly. Choc beans contain caffeine because they use whole coffee beans, but the amount per bean is much lower than a cup of coffee. Eating a small handful will give you a mild boost, but it will not be as strong as a full brewed coffee.

There is no exact equivalent, but it typically takes quite a few choc beans to match the caffeine in one cup of coffee. Because the caffeine is spread across individual beans, the effect is usually more gradual and less intense.

Yes, because they are made with real chocolate, choc beans can soften or melt in warmer conditions. To protect product quality during hotter months, they may be temporarily unavailable for delivery. When in stock, it is best to store them in a cool, dry place and avoid exposure to heat.

They have a firm crunch from the roasted coffee bean inside, but the chocolate coating makes them easier to eat than plain beans. The texture is typically crisp rather than overly hard.

It depends on the chocolate coating. Dark chocolate varieties tend to highlight the coffee flavour more, while milk and white chocolate soften it, making the overall taste sweeter and more approachable.
