Our Growers
At Food Thoughts, we believe that great ingredients start with great growers. This is why we work exclusively with two trusted suppliers who share our values of quality, transparency, and ethical trading.
Our cacao and cocoa powders are organically cultivated and Fairtrade-certified, sourced from the Dominican Republic, where we’ve been working with farmers for over 25 years. Every step of the process is designed to support smallholder farmers and their families, ensuring they receive fair pay and better working conditions.
Our chocolate chips and cacao nibs come from a family-owned B Corp business in Colombia. Founded in 1906, this company now works with 2,500 farming families, alongside its own farms, using cacao as a force for good. Through their sustainability programme, they’re helping to develop schools, plant trees, build infrastructure, and improve living conditions—proving that ethical cocoa is about more than just taste; it’s about people, too.
“The Chocolate Dream is transforming Caribia’s youngsters while also letting them have fun. We are now stronger and more resilient thanks to everything we have learned … and we can now confidently state that we know what we want. The coaching we have been provided with has given us great hope for the future.” – Isabela González
For us, sourcing isn’t just about finding the best cocoa—it’s about making sure every bar, chip, and powder has a positive impact on the people who grow it. Because good chocolate should do good, too.
