Our organic chocolate is based on our highly regarded, tried and trusted gourmet chocolate but is produced with 99.5% organic ingredients. The majority of the organic ingredients are produced under the Cargill brand, including exclusive cocoa ingredients from the Dominican Republic:

Cargill organic cocoa mass
Cargill organic PPP cocoa butter
Cargill sunflower lecithin, Topcithin™ SF
Cargill organic natural vanilla extract

All our organic chocolate meets the requirements of NOP (North American standards) or BIO (European standards) and is certified by SKAL and ECOCERT (certifying bodies).
