Jungle Cat Cacao uses only organic Belizean Cacao to make this 63% cacao chocolate candy with organic unrefined cane sugar, topped with toasted organic pecans. Included in this purchase are three individually wrapped packages of three chocolate candies shipped with care to your address. We make our chocolate in small batches with freshly roasted cacao. Our cacao has been hand picked for flavor and freshness, and we collect it directly from the farm in the Toledo District of Belize. Jungle Cat Cacao then ships the cacao straight to our facility in Wilmington NC, where we produce our chocolate. We are shipping used textbooks from Pender County NC down to Belize, which we donate to the villages near our farm. Jungle Cat Cacao is overseeing 6 acres of cacao we have growing under old-growth trees in the rainforest jungle of Belize. We have jaguar that live on our nearly 200 acres of property there and are always glad to see their footprints near the cacao farm. We are actively protecting this rainforest from being logged, your support helps us keep this habitat safe. Jungle Cat Cacao is creating delicious chocolate by using only fresh Belizean cacao – which has a distinctive tropical flavor that includes hints of raspberry, cherry, grape and raisin. We press cocoa butter right from our own beans which we use in our recipes for a powerful chocolate flavor which is truly unique. This is no ordinary chocolate candy! Take a trip to Belize with your taste buds and enjoy some Tres Jose’s today!
Belizean Cacao – 100% of the cacao used to make our chocolate comes from the Toledo District of Belize – It is sustainably and naturally grown to produce a fine and distinctive cacao….never bitter! We never make chocolate from chips or couverture the way most chocolate makers do. We only make our fine chocolate from roasted cacao – which we roast over an open flame!
No Single Use Plastic in Wrapper – Packaging is made from plant based cellulose. Jungle Cat Cacao is dedicated to having a positive impact on the environment. Our cocoa beans do not travel to Europe and back for manufacture. We collect our cacao ourselves and load it into our shipping container which we ship on our small truck to Belize City where is goes by ocean freight to Florida. From Florida the cacao travels by truck again to Wilmington, NC. Small carbon footprint!
Belizean Cacao has a tropical, raisin/grape/raspberry flavor and is not bitter like other cacao. Put your preconceived notions of dark chocolate candy aside – this dark chocolate isn’t bitter!
Single-Origin Chocolate – we press cocoa butter from Belizean cacao. Our magic ingredient which causes our chocolate flavor to go head and shoulders above other chocolate candy makers is our unfiltered Belizean cocoa butter. You’d never guess how incredibly flavorful this cocoa butter is…it will make a Belizer out of you!
All of the farm laborers who tended the cacao trees that bore this Belizean cacao were paid a living wage. Jungle Cat Cacao works together with the local villages near our farm to grow cacao in harmony with the jungle and in harmony with the local economy. We also contribute by donating used textbooks from Pender County NC to the villages near our farm.
