While we are no longer physically present in Idyllwild, we’re still there through our chocolate, which we continue to make with the same heart and soul as always.

You can find our chocolate at our favorite coffee roaster in town, Black Mountain Coffee Roasting. If you’re visiting Idyllwild, their pour-overs and freshly roasted coffee beans are a must.

Grab a cup of coffee and enjoy it with a piece of El Buen Cacao chocolate. It’s one of the best places in town to slow down, unwind, and take in the beautiful pines and forest scenery with coffee and chocolate in hand.

We’ve been a little quiet on social media lately, but we’ve definitely not been standing still.

Behind the scenes, we’ve been working harder than ever.

The past few years have brought some of the biggest changes in El Buen Cacao’s history. While we’ve said goodbye to our storefront in Idyllwild, we’ve continued growing through online sales, distribution, and thoughtfully chosen pop-ups across Los Angeles.

This photo takes us back to our early distribution days while we hustled to make chocolate in a sleepy mountain town with big dreams. Today, we’re writing a new chapter in a new city. We’re starting fresh, but we’re bringing more than a decade of experience, passion, and an even deeper commitment to our craft.

And we’re excited to share that you’ll soon start seeing El Buen Cacao in specialty grocery stores, coffee shops, and other retail locations.

None of this would be possible without you.

Every purchase. Every share. Every recommendation. Every kind word. It allows us to keep doing what we love, so keep on spreading the good chocolate word of El Buen Cacao.

Thank you for being part of this journey. The best is still ahead, so please tell your friends about El Buen Cacao and spread the word, so we can keep on making good chocolate for the masses.

Transitioning from one place to another hasn’t been easy, but we’re slowly getting there. In the process, we’ve updated our packaging and returned to our humble beginnings. Many of you who have followed us since our inception will probably recognize this style, so we thought it was the perfect time to refresh the design while keeping the crafty yet sleek look that represents us.

This new packaging is a reminder of a new beginning for us here in Los Angeles. For the time being, we are fully online, and if you’d like to shop our chocolate, you can find us on our website via link in bio as we slowly continue planting roots here in LA.

Thank you for continuing to support our journey. 🤎

Also, Happy Mother’s Day! 💝
