We’re devoted to making uncommonly delicious chocolate that captures the brighter and fruitier side of cacao.
About Us- AAnonymousVerified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars8/7/25Fantastic chocolate!
I love the rich nutty flavor and the texture. I use this to make hot chocolate and sometimes for snacking!
- AAnonymousVerified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars6/8/25Pantry Staple Must Have
Delicious simple ingredient chocolate. I actually love the disks as little melt in the mouth treats. Fine for hot chocolate as well but I’d love for a unsweetened version as it’s more versatile. BTW, Raaka’s unsweetened cacao powder is awesome! The powder and this baking 2 pack are healthy chocolate lover essentials!
- AAnonymousVerified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars8/20/24Love these chips!
I am very pleased with the overall flavor, taste and quality of this product. Also, the chocolate is organic and Raaka tests their products regularly to ensure they meet Prop 65 and EU standards. I have been searching for the perfect chocolate for awhile and this chocolate checks all the boxes, it will definitely be a staple in our pantry!
- SSomeoneVerified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars6/28/24So so good
These baking chips are just so so good. I actually break them up into pieces and use them with raisins and roasted chickpeas as a nut free trail mix. Perfect! Very smooth chocolate.

FAQs
What does unroasted mean?
Cacao beans are the seeds of the cacao fruit, harvested and prepared by producers at origin. Every bean has a flavor profile shaped by the soil and climate it grows in, as well as the care each producer takes in cultivating and processing it. This fruity flavor is often roasted away in favor of that classic “chocolatey” note. We love this fruit-forward flavor, and we make our chocolate without roasting so you can enjoy it too.
Is this chocolate vegan?
You bet. All of our bars are 100% vegan. Some dark chocolates still contain milk powder, but ours do not. Instead, we make vegan "milk style" and white chocolate bars with oats and coconut.
What does this chocolate taste like?
Every recipe we make is inspired by the unique flavors of the bean we’re working with. If you’re curious about a specific flavor, check out the flavor page and the reviews! If you still need help, feel free to email us.
How do you ship chocolate when it's hot out?
Don't fret, we check the weather before mailing every order. If it's going to be hotter than 75ºF anywhere en route, we use insulation and ice packs to ensure you receive your chocolate in perfect condition!
Do you test your chocolate for heavy metals?
We regularly test our products to ensure they meet Prop 65 and EU standards for heavy metal content. You can find our latest test results on our FAQ page.
