All of ChocoSol's chocolates range between 65% to 100% cacao content, are low-sugar, and are free of dairy, soy, gluten, nuts, preservatives, fillers, and artificial flavours.

Growing Practices:
ChocoSol's cacao is organic and shade-grown, and sourced direct-trade from Indigenous communities in the Lacondon Jungle of Chiapas and the Oaxacan mountains of Southern Mexico. In recent years they have expanded their trade relationships with social and ecological projects in the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, and Guatemala. Their horizontal trade relationships with their farmers go beyond the mere exchange of commodities and extends to reciprocity, ecological re-generation, and friendship.

About:
The concept of ChocoSol was originally founded in 2004 in Oaxaca, Mexico, by Michael Sacco, and has been based in Toronto since 2006. The origin of our name has links to 3 languages: English, Spanish, and French. ‘Sol’ is from the Spanish word for ‘sun’ and refers to our first 1,000 kilograms of cacao that were roasted with solar power in Oaxaca. In French, ‘sol’ means soil, acknowledging that you must have the soil of the gods in order to have the food of the gods. In English ‘soul’ reminds us of the importance of conducting our work with a good mind and spirit.
Their mission is to craft revolutionary chocolate that is good for mind, body, and soil. To lead and inspire- while learning from and alongside- the craft chocolate industry to continually improve its practices, values, and standards. To work in partnership, collaboration, and co-operation with indigenous communities across the Americas to support community-focused ecological regeneration.
