Our Cocoa

Here at York Cocoa Works we work with outstanding cocoa beans that allow us to prioritise quality, shared value and impact in the supply chains and communities we work with.

We are continually exploring new origins, working with different varieties, and building a greater understanding of the variations and patterns of the cocoa flavours we see and taste with each new arrival of beans.

We sort each cocoa bean by hand to ensure we only work with the highest quality of cocoa materials.

Our model pays farmers based on the quality of their cocoa rather than just volume.

Today the chocolate industry is so large and is geared up to deliver to consumers with brands around the globe that have an expectation of flavour and consistency.

Our journey has taken us to cocoa communities that are connected through our love of chocolate as we try to better understand how the chocolate we make can continually deliver better.
