We set out to make fabulous chocolate. We wanted to make chocolate that makes you feel special and puts a smile on your face. We also want it to make you feel good on the inside and well as on the outside. Lastly, and without compromise, we want our products to have a positive impact on the world and on the lives of those involved in producing the fabulous ingredients we use. With these principles in mind we set out on our quest to make chocolate.
This means our chocolate is raw. The cacao we use has been sun dried and not heat treated. It has been minimally processed to keep it as close to the natural state hanging off the tree.
This also means all our products are vegan and very pure. We use minimal additional ingredients so that the cocoa can sing out, sometimes enhanced by selected ingredients.
All our cacao is certified organic. Most of our other ingredients are organic also.
The ingredients are important, but we also take extreme care to prepare them for you. Firstly, we spend at least three times longer than other manufacturers grinding our ingredients, super super smooth for a luxurious experience in the mouth. Secondly, we feel that the mood you are in when you prepare food is highly important. At the start of the day, we share our highs and lows and make the chocolate with a smile on our faces and passion in our heart.
The result? Our raw chocolate bars and raw chocolate snacks are pure, delicious and a fabulous treat. A little goes a very long way.
We start from scratch, making our chocolate in the traditional way, from cocoa beans and cocoa butter, plus something to add sweetness, like coconut sugar or lucuma. Pretty much nothing else. We grind our ingredients for a very, very long time, to make it super velvety smooth and intense.
All our chocolate starts with the same basics:
Again from Peru, cold pressing preserves as much goodness as possible.
Sustainably harvested from the nectar of the coconut flower. It is a long chain sugar, and has about half the glycemic index of cane sugar.
Lucuma is a fruit, about the size of a melon which has a dense orange flesh, a bit like a squash. It has a malty, biscuity flavour. It adds sweetness and further dimensions of flavour to our Vanoffee products.
