Horseshoe crabs are a species that has existed for 480 million years, making them even older than dinosaurs. Horseshoe crabs have magical blue blood that can be used as a bacterial detector for vaccines. All of us who have been vaccinated have been saved by horseshoe crabs!
Taiwan's three-spined horseshoe crab (Tachypleus tridentatus), also known as the "couple fish" or "steel helmet fish," was once found throughout the northern and western coasts of the island. However, due to a variety of factors, such as coastal development, consumption, medical reagent manufacturing, fishery bycatch, and seawater and marine waste pollution, the number of horseshoe crabs has been greatly reduced. Currently, only Penghu and Kinmen have a record of adult horseshoe crabs coming ashore to spawn.
In 2019, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) listed the three-spined horseshoe crab as endangered species.
The Taiwan Horseshoe Crab Conservation Network has teamed up with the ocean creator Oxun Yangxing Creative Studio and Taiwan's local chocolate studio K'in Cacao to design a 3D mudflat young horseshoe crab-style sorghum-flavored chocolate using Kinmen's local sorghum liquor "Original Brew 21" based on the characteristics of Kinmen, the home of the largest horseshoe crab population in Taiwan. The aroma of wine blends perfectly with 65% dark chocolate, leaving an unforgettable aftertaste.
100% pure cocoa beans, tempered dark chocolate handmade by craftsmen. The bittersweet taste of chocolate and the warm and spicy flavor of sorghum convey the passion of the "horseshoe crab" people to protect the ocean.
The action to protect horseshoe crabs requires your support and participation.
The proceeds from chocolate sales will be used for horseshoe crab conservation. We invite you to love the ocean together!
