Q: What makes Bar & Cocoa different?

When you shop with us, you're not just indulging in a treat; you're becoming part of a community that values the art and science of chocolate making.

Q: What is bean to bar chocolate?

Bean to bar chocolate is chocolate that is made from scratch by the same producer, starting from the raw cacao beans and ending with the finished chocolate bars and treats. This process allows the chocolate maker to control every aspect of the chocolate making, such as roasting, grinding, conching, tempering, and molding. Bean to bar chocolate is often more flavorful, nuanced, and ethical than mass-produced chocolate. It reflects the artistry and craftsmanship of the maker and the quality and origin of the cacao.

Q: How do you source your chocolate? Is it ethical and sustainable?

We source our chocolate from award winning craft makers who use high-quality cacao beans and go beyond fair trade. We work with over 50 fine chocolate makers from around the world who share our values and passion for real chocolate. Some of the countries we source our chocolate from include Peru, Vietnam, Brazil, Colombia, Nicaragua,, Philippines, India, and many more. We are always on the lookout for new and exciting origins and makers to add to our collection.

Q: Do you have vegan, or keto-friendly or soy free chocolate?

What is 100% Chocolate?

100% chocolate, also known as unsweetened or baking chocolate, is a type of chocolate that contains only cocoa solids and cocoa butter, with no added sugar or other sweeteners. It's enjoyed on its own by those who appreciate the rich, complex flavors of pure cocoa. Here at Bar & Cocoa we have the largest selection of single origin 100% chocolate bars in the world.

Why People Buy 100% Chocolate

With the rise of the craft chocolate movement and an increased focus on healthy, natural foods, 100% chocolate has gained popularity among consumers. People buy it for several reasons:

Health Benefits: 100% chocolate is rich in flavonoids, a type of antioxidant that can promote heart health, reduce inflammation, and even improve brain function. It also contains iron, magnesium, and other essential minerals.
Dietary Preferences: For those following low-sugar or sugar-free diets, 100% chocolate is an ideal choice. It's also suitable for vegan and dairy-free diets, as it contains only cocoa.
Flavor: While it's certainly an acquired taste, many people enjoy the complex, nuanced flavors of 100% chocolate. With no sugar to mask the cocoa, these bars can showcase the diverse flavors of different cocoa bean varieties and origins.
