Charles Ball in honor of Charles IV. from the Steiner & Kovarik chocolate factory
We wanted to process chocolate from scratch using the bean-to-bar method. For quality cocoa beans, we first traveled to several countries in South and Central America to discover the best chocolate beans in Colombia, at Juan González’s family farm, where organic bean cultivation flourishes without any chemicals.

The vision of the owners of the chocolate factory is to restore the name of the Czech Republic in the world of chocolate with a reference to the 1st Republic, when the Czech Republic was the third largest processor of cocoa mass
What is the bean-to-bar method?
Bean-to-bar translates as “from bean to bar” and is the most original process for producing high-quality chocolate, where whole cocoa beans are ground and cocoa butter is not separated. Only sugar or milk is added, and the best quality chocolate is in the world!
In contrast, industrial chocolate is made from pre-prepared so-called chocolate mass, which is produced in huge quantities from raw materials of dubious quality and with a small content of cocoa butter.

What are the most common chocolate myths?
The Steiner & Kovarik chocolate shop dispels the myths associated with the popular snack.
- Myth #1: White chocolate is not chocolate. If white chocolate contains a high proportion of cocoa butter, in many cases it can be of better quality than milk chocolate.
- Myth #2: The darker the chocolate, the better. It is not so. After processing, cocoa butter and cocoa powder are obtained from cocoa beans. Cocoa powder is beige, which is why manufacturers modify it to a dark color through a chemical process of alkalization. However, the powder loses its beneficial substances. Prague chocolate is produced by a slow process in a melanger, where natural de-bittering and de-acidification takes place.
- Myth #3: The higher the percentage, the better the chocolate. This myth is indirectly related to the previous one. The quality of chocolate is mainly determined by the raw materials used, the quality of the cocoa beans and, last but not least, the roasting and processing method. The biggest problem is roasting at too high temperatures, the subsequent separation of the cocoa butter and, of course, alkalization. The fact that you can buy high-percentage dark chocolate for CZK 30 in a supermarket is unfortunately due to the fact that it is made from low-quality cocoa beans, and that it is also subsidized by the residents of the African countries where the beans come from.
- Myth #4: Chocolate makes you fat. Real chocolate contains a minimal amount of sucrose. Those who consume high-percentage chocolate, in addition to the sweetened panel, not sugar, are not in danger of gaining weight. Cocoa, on the other hand, even helps with weight loss.
