Todd and Cameron, the founders have maintained an uncompromising quality with their sourcing, processing, and quality to produce great tasting bars. You'll notice that the majority of their bars are 70% with is done on purpose, so you can taste the unique difference each cacao from different countries have to offer. Both Todd and Cameron were tech geniuses located in Silicon Valley, where they started building their own chocolate equipment in their basement. Right in the middle of the craft chocolate movement starting to take over the country, they decided to tackle the adventure for themselves. Todd and Cameron wanted to produce high quality chocolate bars using only simple ingredients. Today, Dandelion produces over 12,000 bars monthly, and it’s still not enough to meet the demand for this great chocolate maker. Dandelion’s shop also boast wonderful variety of baked goods, hot chocolate and even daily tours of their chocolate factory.
Cacao Region
Tamil Nadu, IndiaTamil Nadu is one of the five main cacao-growing regions of southern India, as well as one of the most dynamic. Despite being notorious for elephants, delightfully spiced dishes, and high quality coconut cultivation, cocoa production has been on the climb here ever since it came to the area in the early 2000's. Most farmers are still selling into the low-earning commodity market, but there are some who have developed a careful post-harvest process and started selling into the fine flavor market.
Cacao Estate
Anamalai (Regal Farms)This brand is known by many names, among them are Anamalai Hills, Pollachi, and Regal Plantations, all of which refer to the same family-run farm in southern India: Regal Farms. The land is spread over a few parcels in the area, all operated under the same organic & sustainable principles which make it so remarkable. Regal Farms’ owner and operator, Harish Manoj Kumar, has been growing cacao on the land since the crop came to the region in the early 2000’s. Several years ago, he & his brother-in-law decided to begin selling their beans under a premium label, taking steps to completely eliminate their reliance upon chemicals. In the years since, they’ve begun exporting their premium cacao to dozens of countries, beloved for its naturally sweet and nutty flavor.
