Assai from Modica is a chocolate producer located in Modica, a town in Sicily, Italy, famous for its traditional chocolate-making methods that date back to the Spanish domination of the island. Assai crafts its chocolate using a cold processing technique that avoids conching, thus preserving the sugar crystals’ coarse texture, characteristic of Modica chocolate.

This method imparts a unique flavor and texture to the chocolate, distinguishing it from more conventional smooth and creamy types. Assai produces a variety of chocolate flavors, incorporating local Sicilian ingredients such as citrus and pistachios.
