Our Chocolate-Making Process
Do you make your chocolate on-site?
Yes! We take pride in creating our bean-to-bar chocolate from start to finish right here at our Tasmanian facility.
Where do you source your cacao beans?
Whenever possible, we prioritize direct sourcing of our cacao beans. This allows us to ensure fair treatment and ethical practices within the cacao communities we partner with.
Our chocolate is made to our Full Bean Method ™ process, which helps retain the goodness and health benefits of chocolate.
