A True Story about where Cacao Comes from

I pay these kids a fair wage. They work five hour shifts. They’re healthy and well-fed. They give me side-eye when I give them my banana bread and peanut butter cookies to snack on while they work. Like, uh, we eat, patrona... our moms feed us.

What are the benefits of dark and vegan milk chocolate? 

  • Choco Estates dark chocolate is high in pure cacao and low in sugar

  • Like all products made with real cacao, dark chocolate is an excellent natural source of energy, fiber, healthy fat, calcium, magnesium, copper and antioxidants

  • Theobromine, a unique compound in cacao, has been linked with improved circulation, heart function, and elevated mental focus 

  • We craft our plant-based milk and white chocolate with wholesome nutritious ingredients like coconut, cashew, and breadnut, with no added oils or emulsifiers

Ceremony Collection

What makes this cacao ceremonial grade? 

There is no official standard or certification for ceremonial grade cacao. To ensure you are getting cacao of the highest quality produced ethically and sustainably, it's important to know not only the brand, but the producer and the farmer.

At Choco Estates, we are the farmers and producers who work with cacao every day.

To us, ceremonial grade means:

  • Heirloom and ancestral varieties of cacao, shade grown in forest gardens like the Nacional cacao we grow

  • Trees cultivated by us from seed, carefully tended according to the moon cycle

  • Seeds carefully fermented and sun dried onsite 

  • Fire roasted and hand shelled, by skilled people instead of machines

  • Stone ground, Poured, molded, and wrapped by hand 

Everyone involved in the process is treated with dignity and paid a just wage

Traditional Block: with a sharp knife, shave off the desired amount of cacao paste and add to hot water, or milk.

Once the shaved paste or drops have melted, whisk until frothy and sweeten if desired
