Iceland’s favorite chocolate bars made by Omnom were awarded 11 prizes at the European Bean-to-Bar competition earlier this month, including five gold prizes!
In May 2018, Omnom released its newest chocolate bar, Black n’ Burnt Barley, infused with hints of rich, toasty malt and barley flavor, reminiscent of burned toast and coffee. Omnom is elated that only a few months later, Black n’ Burnt Barley took home a gold prize! Also winning gold were crowd favorites Lakkrís+ Salt and the classic milk chocolate bar, Milk of Madagascar.
“We are extremely happy and humble about this news. An award like this means a lot for a young company like us,” said Kjartan chocolate maker and founder of Omnom Chocolate.
