“Food of the Gods, brought down to Earth.”
Award winning organic chocolate since 2005. Our mission is to protect biodiversity making a positive impact on people and the planet. We work with agro-forested cacao beans, sourced from smallholder farms in South and Central America, taking a down to earth but artisanal approach to our chocolate making. Our range includes some single estate origin bars alongside some fun and nutritious bars with inclusions and flavours, all from sustainably sourced ingredients. We create hot chocolate flakes, couverture buttons, artisan chocolates and more from our micro factory in East Lothian, Scotland.
Where we Source our Cacao
Everything we use in our factory is sourced with consideration for how it is produced, where it comes from, and if it is really needed in the first place. Our delicious chocolate is only made with simple and pure ingredients. Our packaging is a reflection of the cacao origins, featuring tessellations designed in house by Friederike, and made from biodegradable or recyclable sources.
