The double bronze medal for the best chocolate produced in Málaga at the International Chocolate Awards 2024: where to buy it

Italy's chocolate tradition has always been a benchmark in international competitions, but Spain, and particularly Málaga, is starting to claim its space strongly. The artisan from Málaga, Mayte Sánchez, creator of the brand Maychoco, has once again shone in a new edition of the International Chocolate Awards, achieving this time a double bronze medal with two of her creations, highlighting once again the product from Málaga in her elaborations, notably featuring mango from Axarquía, as well as its lemons or lavender.

On one hand, she achieved the bronze medal with her special 'Mango with White Chocolate, Lavender', a creation "that represents the best of our land" as stated by Maychoco. This chocolate, which scored 86.7 out of 100 in the category 'White chocolate enrobed whole fruit' at the World Final of the International Chocolate Awards, is made with mango from Axarquía, "dehydrated in our workshop, coming from sustainable and local agriculture", as well as coated in an "exquisite white chocolate, made 'butter to bar' with selected ingredients" and with a "touch of lavender and lemon from Málaga, which bring freshness and authenticity to each bite".

"This award is not only a recognition of our passion and dedication, but also of the unique flavors of our beloved region. Thanks to everyone for being part of this journey and for valuing the authentic," described by Maychoco after receiving the award, which was not the only one. Another bronze medal, this one for their '55% Milk Chocolate, Dark Milk' which received a score of 86.3 in the category 'Micro-batch – Plain/origin milk chocolate bars'. "We are proud to announce that our 55% Dark Milk chocolate bar, made with the exquisite cocoa from Piura, has been awarded," they commented a few days ago from Maychoco, who were also awarded in 2023 with a gold medal and a silver medal.

Both the 'Mango with 39% White Chocolate with Lavender and Lemon' and the '55% Cacao Bean to Bar Milk Chocolate' are available on the Maychoco website, the former priced at 15 euros (100 grams) and the latter at 7.35 euros (70 grams).
