The camel milk project represents employment, innovation, tourism, conservation and protection of a very much ours breed that is in danger."
The presentation was attended by, among others, Francisco López-Gago, president of Grupo Gourmets, the general director of agricultural productions and markets of MAPA, Esperanza Orellana and the deputy general director of livestock production means of MAPA, Leonor Algarra.
The chocolates have been presented in the scope of the Show to professionals in the sector, and next summer, when the administrative procedures are completed, they can be enjoyed by the general public.
Biocho Bon Bon: 4 Canarian flavors
The chocolates, in addition to 100% native Canarian camel milk, have been made with products from the land of Fuerteventura and Lanzarote. The master chocolatier Enrique Manuel Martín has been inspired by the Canary Islands for the production of these chocolates and different products from the islands of Lanzarote and Fuerteventura.
The chocolates will be named after Biocho Bon Bon, put in memory of the camel Biocho, an animal that died and has been a fundamental part of the educational and conservation projects carried out at DromeMilk Camel Bio Farm.
The "Tuno volcánico" bonbon, mixes 70% organic dark chocolate with Km0 jam of Canarian prickly pear made by hand. For its part, the "Tofio cream" joins camel milk to smoked artisanal cheese from Majorera goat and Canarian white fig jam.
The variety "Magua majorera" fuses the milk of Canarian camel with organic milk chocolate, caramel and natural sea salt from the Salinas del Carmen de Fuerteventurs., Finally, the Canarian spring mixes this milk with organic white chocolate and strawberries from Valsequillo.
High nutritional values
The nutritionist, Rita Cabrera has highlighted the benefits of this milk and these chocolates "low in fat, are skimmed, high in iron, potassium and vitamins". In the opinion of this expert, this superfood is essential in the prevention of obesity and diabetes, without having to go through another process.
Camel milk is one of the most similar to human breast milk, next to that of the mare. It is easy to digest, has more vitamins and has less fat than other milks such as cow's milk.
The Dromemilk center is also key in scientific projects on the properties of the milk of this animal for health, hand in hand with important Universities and the European Union. In 2002, research on the properties of this milk began, and in 2011 the first pilot farm was launched to study the feasibility of its production.
