Melt into a World of Adventure with
The UK’s only ‘bean to bar’
premium chocolate Maker
Why Willie’s Cacao is different - Some of the world’s best chocolate at
affordable prices
It’s all about flavour - We use world’s best cacaos, raw cane sugar, no vanilla and not even soya lecithin so nothing gets in the
way of the flavour of the bean - Made ‘bean to bar’ in small batches for complete control
Affordable & accessible - Because we cut out supply chain costs by making everything ourselves and buy th e beans direct from the
farmers. - Accessible product formats / sizes
Taste adventures, discovery
- Only use great single estate cacaos,
each with stunningly individual flavours
100% natural, healthier, ethical - No vegetable fats, emulsifiers etc - Lower sugar but energy boost
- Organic and fair trade principles
Well known , real brand
- Willie’s TV shows, cook books, talks… - Own cacao farm in Venezuela - Used by Michelin star chefs
More adult, indulgent, decadent and
adventurous than other brands
The Aim – to introduce everyone to real
chocolate. The ultimate affordable treat
I want everyone
to have some of the
awakening I did. Few things
give me more pleasure than
watching someone gasping
with delight as the chocolate
melts and the realisation
dawns that all that taste
comes simply from the
cacao.
Have been growing my own cacao on Hacienda El Tesoro in Venezuela for 16 years
Use the world’s great single estate
cacaos, like fine wines, all highly individual
We are amazed with the
taste. I now understand when I was eating
Cadbury I wasn't eating
real chocolate!
Willie, it's magic, with
such an intense
flavour. Hands down
the best chocolate I've ever eaten.
(Orange)
I didn’t like dark chocolate until I tasted your cacao.
Amazing experience of
eating chocolate that tastes
like you have added lots of
different ingredients and then
realising that the taste comes
from the chocolate itself.
Your chocolate has a deep,
dark, sexily earthy intensity
that is utterly addictive. It's
like taking the idea of the
taste of good chocolate
and making it a reality.
People are blown away, it’s like a light coming on
The UK’s only ‘bean to bar’ premium
chocolate manufacturer
A combination of antique and modern machinery
Small batches, with obsessive control over quality
Natural & pure. Fairly traded.
Cacao fairly and ethically sourced
- Bought direct from farmers / co-operatives
- Use “premium beans” which are automatically significantly
above the fairtrade minimum price
Nothing added - chocolate in its purest form.
- no flavourings even vanilla
- no additives eg soya lecithin
Milk of the Gods and El Blanco lower in sugar than other milk and
white chocolates
Batch made / minimally processed so likely to have high levels of
antioxidants and vitamins
None of the estates we work with use pesticides or fertilisers, some
are certified organic. We use a number of certified organic
ingredients eg the essences, raisins
