Great fermentation matters. But it can’t save everything that happened before it, or everything that happens next. 👀

From harvesting ripe pods to drying, transportation, storage and processing, every step has a chance to protect the quality of cacao… or lose some of it along the way.
Good cacao isn’t one perfect step. It’s a whole chain of them. 🌱

We may need to rethink our sample security protocols.
The suspect has been identified. No regrets were reported. 🍫
In my defense, the quinoa pops passed quality control.

Same cacao ritual, different temperature.

Make it like you normally would, shake it with ice, pour it over cold milk and suddenly hot weather is no longer invited to interfere with my cacao plans.

Save this one for your next hot day. ☀️

Seattle… we’re coming! 😭🍫

This one feels a little surreal to post.

In less than two weeks, we’ll be packing up Cacao Adventures and heading to Seattle to exhibit at the Northwest Chocolate Festival Northwest Chocolate Festival for the very first time.

Are we excited? YES.
Are we nervous? Also very much yes. 😂
Do we completely know what we’re doing yet? Absolutely NOT.

We’re still figuring out what to bring, how much cacao we need, how we’re going to fit everything in our luggage, and about 100 other little details. But somehow, our small family business from Carlsbad is going to be there alongside chocolate makers and cacao people from around the world. That part still feels surreal. 🥹

Also we are taking our boss, Rio, so let’s see how it goes with a 3 year old. We have some back up flying in to help us with him Cesar Salino Kuan Veng Valeria Garate 🙏🏼

If you’re in Seattle, please come find us! Having some familiar faces at our booth would mean the world to us. 🤎

Four ingredients. All Peruvian. All going into our new bars.

Lucuma ripens in the Andean valleys. Ají panca dries in the northern sun. Sacha inchi climbs above the cacao trees. Quinoa and Maras salt come from the slopes above the Sacred Valley.

None of them are common in chocolate. All of them are common in Peru.

Seven new bars, zero refined sugar, launching October 3 at the Northwest Chocolate Festival festival. Swipe to meet the ingredients 🍫 Which one are you trying first?

Jungle Diaries 📚

This was one of the first sounds we heard when we arrived.

As we were making our way into the village, this man stood in the middle of the community and blew into a shell, sending this sound across the village.

After traveling all the way into the Peruvian Amazon, it was one of those moments that immediately made us stop, look around, and realize just how far from our everyday world we had traveled.

A pretty unforgettable way to arrive.
