We’re a multiple award-winning chocolate maker located in Sudbury, Massachusetts.  We search throughout Latin America to find the very best single-origin cacao beans and use those beans to handcraft our chocolate.  Because our beans come from only one farm or region and we never alkalize or use additives, our chocolate reflects the incredible true flavors of the beans from which it’s made.  We also take the exceptional step of freshly pressing our own single-origin cocoa butter from the same beans we use to make our bars.  The result is intensely flavorful and exceptionally smooth, true single-origin chocolate.  

To’ak uses one of the rarest and most prized cacao varieties on earth to produce limited editions of single-origin Ecuadorian dark chocolate.

The company pays farmers between 3-8x the local farmgate price to grow fine flavor cacao. The company co-fund a conservation program for heirloom cacao.

We’re Beyond Good: both in name and practice. And we’re redefining quality and sustainability standards in the chocolate industry. The typical chocolate supply chain usually has anywhere from 3-5 middlemen sitting between the cocoa farmer and the chocolate maker. That doesn’t work for farmers and it doesn’t work for us. So we put our money where our mouth is. We built a factory in Madagascar. And we built it as close as possible to our cocoa farmers. Making chocolate where the cocoa grows is our burning desire in life.

We recently launched our new line of three bars made with Ugandan cocoa, the beginning of another direct supply chain: https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/01/16/1971713/0/en/Beyond-Good-Sweetens-its-Offering-with-Three-New-Chocolate-Bars.html
