A nice write up about us for National Chocolate Day over at
When husband and wife team Maurice and Helen Curtis bought iconic Tasmanian chocolate company Federation Chocolate in 2014, the couple decided to take the brand in a new direction. Rather than produce chocolate for a mass-market they switched tact to transform Federation into an artisan chocolate brand that hand selects beans sourced from ethical and sustainable cacao farms to produce a quality stone-ground chocolate product renowned across Australia.
“One of the difficult things with supply chain is you can never really tell where something comes from – and a lot of difficulties with chocolate is a lot of farms where cacao is grown, deal with unethical farming, child labor and aren’t sustainable. So, for us, it became paramount that if we were to sell a product everyone enjoys, it couldn’t cause harm.”
