F.A.Q. 

Frequently Asked cocoa Questions

Getting
Started

What is your minimum order quantity

Our minimum order quantity is one bag.

What is the approximate weight of one bag?

Each origin has its own standards but in most cases, the weight average of a bag is between 50-70kg.

What are bags made of?

Each origin bags its cocoa in different sized bags usually made from sisal or jute. Due to scarcity of these materials in some countries, polupropulene bags are used instead.

Where can I learn more details about your cocoas?

All our catalog is now available online on our webshop. If you want to see the prices and be able to order, you need to create an account.

What are the ideal storage conditions for cocoa?

Ventilation is key to maintaining your beans healthy and in good condition and prevent mould formation. Make sure that the room you store your beans in has enough ventilation to allow the air in the room to circulate. Ideal temperature: below 15 degrees Celsius. Ideal relative humidity: 75-85%.
To prevent any possible contamination of your production room, store the beans separately to avoid the possibility of a stray moth laying eggs in your chocolate.

Do you regularly offer tasting and quality testing sessions?

Yes we do! Please reach out to us to know more.
