Sustainable cocoa and chocolate products

Company: Barry Callebaut AG, Zurich

Ingredient Snapshot: Barry Callebaut says its new HORIZONS range of sustainable cocoa and chocolate products further promotes its efforts to scale impact and drive change on the ground to improve the livelihood of cocoa farmers and their communities. Sustainable HORIZONS cocoa and chocolate products are sold by the company with premiums that are channeled to the recently announced Cocoa Horizons Foundation to fund cocoa sustainability activities. Cocoa produced by farmers involved in these activities will be sold as Barry Callebaut’s sustainable HORIZONS cocoa and chocolate products. Available to food manufacturers, as well as artisanal and professional customers, the product line includes cocoa beans, cocoa nibs, cocoa liquor, cocoa butter, cocoa powder and chocolate. The cocoa is sourced from Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana and Tanzania, and includes the traceability of beans from farm to warehouse.
