Ghaf7 · Al Ain

Rooted in Al Ain. Made fresh every morning.

Like the Ghaf, our roots run deep. Chocolate, dates and cakes made daily in our own factory, and nothing stays on the shelf longer than 14 days.

The production line

Seven stages between a cocoa bean and your box.

01 / 07

Sourcing

Cocoa pods are harvested by hand on West African farms, and the beans are fermented and sun-dried before they travel to Al Ain.

Origin: West Africa
02 / 07

Roasting

Cocoa beans and the nuts for our fillings are slow-roasted in-house to draw out their flavour: almonds, hazelnuts and pistachios included.

Roasted in-house
03 / 07

Refining

The nibs are ground into cocoa liquor, then refined until the particles are too fine for the tongue to notice.

Target: under 25 µm
04 / 07

Conching

Hours of slow, warm mixing smooth the texture and round off any sharp or bitter notes.

Slow and warm
05 / 07

Tempering

Heating, cooling and gently re-warming builds the crystal structure behind the snap and the shine.

Melt 45 °CCool 27 °CWork 31 °C
06 / 07

Moulding

Tempered chocolate is poured into moulds, tapped to release air and cooled until it lets go cleanly.

Moulds: standard or custom
07 / 07

Packing

Every piece is checked, flow-wrapped and boxed, ready for the shelf, the wedding table or the boardroom.

On the shelf: 14 days max

The pastry kitchen

Baked by hand, every morning.

Alongside the chocolate line, our pastry chefs knead, pour, bake and finish each cake and pastry the same day it reaches the showroom.
