There is an enormous gap in understanding chocolate and cacao; not only by the general consumer but also by the many chocolate makers, chocolatiers, and pastry chefs. There are centuries of mis-information that has to be undone and its nice to see you taking a role. We source rare origin cacao from Venezuela and have also been working hard to educate and expose folks to richness and diversity of flavors across different strains and origins.

It is a old French manufacturer, founded in 1882 in St Etienne, the historical chocolate city in France. St Etienne was the home of Escoffier, Barbier, Pupier and other famous old chocolate factories. They make high end chocolate for both consumers (bars, confectionary...) and professionals (couverture). It is available through Chocosphere.com and local foodservice distributors. They roast all the beans in a traditional way (gas ball). Hello chocolate lovers,
