Hibiscus

organic, fair trade, vegan, soy-free

Ruby-red Hibiscus flowers infuse a smooth, deep chocolate from the Upala, Costa Rica with their exquisite aroma and tanginess. The beautiful bright red blossoms of hibiscus are used around the world to make a refreshing tart drink called Bissap in West Africa, Karkady in the Middle East, Jamaica in Mexico, Krajiap in Thailand, and Sorrel in Jamaica. Regardless of where it is drunk, hibiscus is renowned around the world for reducing fever and lowering blood pressure, boosting the healthiness of our already antioxidant rich chocolate with a fruity tanginess that complements the chocolate's smooth rich taste and will make it hard for you to resist.

Triple Cacao

organic, fair trade, vegan, soy-free

quintuple award winner

A one-of-a-kind blend of three forms of the plant we hold dearest: tangy cacao pulp from Brazil and bold cacao nibs from Costa Rica are blended into a smooth Costa Rican chocolate to make a splendid trifecta! This bar represents the history of cacao as it moved from being used for its pulp in the trees origins in South America up into Central America where chocolate was discovered thousands of years ago. Winner of the US Gold medal, World Silver Medal, and  Americas Silver medal in the International Chocolate Awards inclusion category and the NW Chocolate Festival Inclusions Silver medal.

$10 for a 1.5 oz bar

Single Estate Hawaiian

70% Dark Chocolate

Hamakua coast, Big Island

vegan, soy-free

When we are able to obtain some of the well grown and fermented cacao beans from farmers we have cultivated close relationships with around the Hawaiian islands, we carefully crush, winnow, and conch this delicate cacao into a rich smooth chocolate reminiscent of the South Pacific breezes that warm these tropical isles. This is one of the few chocolates available that is completely grown and made on US soil.

Winner 1st place best bean-to-bar chocolate at the 2012 Big Island Chocolate Festival

$8 for a 1.5 oz bar

Xocoxochitl Chipotle Allspice

organic, fair trade, vegan, soy-free

Traditional chocolate flavorings of the Aztecs, the chipotles and allspice in this bar give the chocolate a little extra smoky kick, but not tongue-searingly hot. The fact that chiles are pain relievers and appetite suppressants can only make this delicious chocolate even better for you! Though the native allspice of the Caribbean and Central America has been largely replaced by cinnamon and cloves, plants introduced from Asia,  we love the rich flavor combination of allspice  so much we named this bar after the Aztec name for allspice, Xocoxochitl.

$6 for a 1.5 oz bar

Shipping

Oahu, Hawaii

We offer free drop off anywhere in Waikiki on Tuesday afternoons. Please choose the “Free Shipping” option, make sure your hotel or apartment address is correct, and we will drop off your wrapped bars the next Tuesday after your order, complete with an ice pack and wrapping for you to take in your carry on luggage as a great Hawaiian-made gift to take home. That is if you can resist the urge to eat all the bars right there and then!

U.S.

We prefer to ship USPS flat rate priority mail from Hawaii to the mainland so that we can put extra padding in to make sure the chocolate bars do not break in shipping (which would not work in an envelope) and provide thermal protection (mylar, cornstarch packing peanuts, and/or ice packs) so they do not melt sitting on a runway somewhere.  Anywhere from 1 to 9 bars costs the same $8 with this method. If you're feeling risky, we offer a "you accept the risk and we ship low cost" option for $5-7 depending on the number of bars, where we can’t guarantee in what shape the bars will arrive. This may work some of the time in the winter, but not in the summer heat shipping from Hawai’i. We strive to use recycled and recyclable packing materials. If you know about more sustainable packing options, please let us know!

International

We currently offer international shipping to Mexico, Canada, Colombia, Brazil, Peru, Ecuador, Venezuela, Bolivia, New Caledonia, New Zealand, Australia, Philippines, Indonesia, Japan, Norway, Sweden, Holland, Belgium, United Kingdom, Hong Kong, and Germany via the “International Expedited” shipping option. If the country you want to send our chocolate to is not in this list, stay tuned and we hope to be able to add it soon so everyone around the world can enjoy our delicious chocolate too!

Amaranth Crunch

organic, fair trade, vegan, soy-free

Amaranth is a “pseudo-grain” closely related to quinoa of South America and spinach, and not to the grasses that give us all the other “true” grains. Little known outside of Central America and health food shops in the US, amaranth should be called a “truer” grain since it actually has substantial quantities of all 8 of the essential amino acids, which grains are missing many of. In fact, amaranth was so substantial that it was a staple food for the Aztecs, who even molded it into large sculptures outside their impressive temples, yet, disastrously, the European conquistadores thought this food was sacrilegious and banned the Aztecs from using it, possibly leading to the Aztecs eventual collapse without their central food. Luckily it has survived into the modern day in delicious cakes called alegrias, Spanish for “joys”, made of popped amaranth seeds mixed with honey or sugar, a delicious, nutty, and healthy alternative to rice krispies! We thought this would make a great contribution to our Mexican historical line of chocolates, so we hand pop thousands of the minuscule seeds and blend them with a rich dark Mexican chocolate, given it a nice crunch, pop, and nuttiness when you bite into the bar. What could be better than eating a delicious, healthy slice of history that is called “joys”?

Rosita de Cacao

70% Dark Chocolate

Dominican Republic cacao

organic, fair trade, vegan, soy-free

The rich, maple sugar or fenugreek scent of the flower called cacahuaxochitl by the Aztec is presented with a Dominican chocolate that stands up to heady aroma of the flower. Rosita de cacao, an intensely scented flower distantly related to cacao, is used in chocolate drinks and foams in Mexico, like tejate. The foam on these drinks was extremely popular among the Maya for centuries, being pictured on many of their burial vases that contained chocolate. This is one of the few times this rare spice has been seen and tasted outside of Mexico, your chance to be part of the true history

of chocolate. As mentioned on the 2012 Saveur magazine 100 list.

Wildcrafted Hawaiian Pink Peppercorn

Also know in Hawai‘i as Christmas Berry from the time of year it ripens, or wilelaiki, this gently dried aromatic wild harvested pink peppercorn is great both in sweet and savory dishes as a beautiful garnish or ground spice. Since it is in the mango family it has a nice fruity finish on top of its mild peppery taste that goes great in everything from spice rubs to cupcakes. Since this plant is quite invasive, displacing native Hawaiian plants, we're hoping you'll help us with this project we call "Eat the Enemy" to eat this plant out of existence. Tasty & ecological, how can you go wrong?!

Wild harvested on O’ahu & Big Island, Hawai’i.

$3.99 for 0.5 oz bag
