What Goes In
Ingredients We're Proud Of
We believe great chocolate starts long before the kitchen. It starts with what you choose to put in it.
Our Sourcing Philosophy
We make our chocolate from scratch, starting with beans or nibs. Every ingredient we use is something we are proud to name out loud — because we chose it deliberately, and we think it matters.
Small-batch making means we can be selective. We'd rather use less of something exceptional than more of something mediocre. That philosophy shapes every product we make.
The Foundation
Cacao
Chocolate is only as good as its cacao. We source single-origin and carefully blended cacao chosen for depth of flavor, ethical sourcing, and consistency. The origin shapes everything — the fruit notes, the bitterness, the finish.
We work with cacao that's been grown and processed with care, from farms that treat their land and workers well. Good chocolate should taste good all the way down.
Bolivia Heirloom Felix Parades Direct Trade
Tangy and full bodied with notes of caramelized sugar.
Uganda Semuliki Forest Direct Trade Organic
A powerhouse of classic chocolate flavor with notes of spice and dried fruit
Colombia Tumaco
Our personal favorite- mild nuanced chocolate with malt and cashew flavors.
What We Use
Southern Pecans
Our turtles and toffee are built around fresh pecans. Buttery, rich, and grown close to home — they're one of our favorite things about making chocolate in the South.
Real Butter
Our toffee uses real butter — nothing hydrogenated, nothing substituted. The flavor difference is immediate and unmistakable.
Pure Cane Sugar
We use pure cane sugar throughout. No high fructose corn syrup (if you see corn syrup on a label, it is the glucose version that you use in your own kitchen).
Sea Salt
A finishing touch on many of our products. Salt doesn't just add flavor — it opens up the chocolate and makes everything taste more like itself.
Fresh Cream
Used in our caramels and ganaches. Fresh, real cream makes a texture and richness that shelf-stable alternatives simply can't replicate.
Natural Flavors & Inclusions
We know you don't want to eat chemicals you can't pronounce. Wherever possible, we try to use natural flavorings and colors. If you don't recognize something, ask us!
