Artisan chocolates · Mysuru

Chocolate made where the cacao grows.

We buy beans from one Indian farm and make every bar by hand in our kitchen in Mysuru. Jaggery, never refined sugar.

The bars

India grows the cacao. It used to leave.

Why we started

India grows the cacao. It used to leave.

Indian beans get shipped out, turned into chocolate somewhere else, and sold back to us as Belgian. Most people here have never tasted what an Indian bean actually does.

So we buy from a farm we can name, make the chocolate in Mysuru, and sell it to India. Sweetened with jaggery, the way chocolate first tasted here.

How it is made

Every bar goes through all of it

By hand, in our own kitchen, from a raw bean to a wrapped bar.

    The husk comes off. What is left is the nib.

    Nibs and jaggery go on a stone grinder until they turn liquid.

    Tempering is what gives a bar its gloss and its snap.
