How We Made Our Decisions

Cacao is grown primarily in the Ivory Coast, Ghana, Nigeria, Cameroon, Indonesia and Brazil, where market instability has led to underpaid labor and even child slavery. And, to compensate for growing demand, more and more conventional cacao farms have transitioned to "full-sun" farming, leading to deforestation, increased reliance on synthetic pesticides, and loss of wildlife habitat. Rainforest Alliance, Organic and Fair-trade Certified chocolates, like the products above, are a sweeter option for your health, the environment and the workers who produce it.
