So in 2010 she started making her own on the kitchen bench in Christchurch with a spice grinder and organic cocoa beans, using her students as enthusiastic and entirely unpaid taste testers. A trip to the Dominican Republic to see ethical cocoa sourcing for herself settled the rest of it. The test kitchen is still in Christchurch, which rather suggests the approach is working.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMuch of the cocoa comes from Acopagro, a Fairtrade co-operative in Peru's San Martín region on the edge of the Amazon, which is a great deal more than most chocolate will tell you about itself. The bars are certified organic and Fairtrade, and Bennetto is a B Corporation and a Living Wage accredited employer, which is four certifications for a company that began with a spice grinder. They also describe the bars as net climate positive, which is their claim rather than ours and set out properly on their own site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e70% Dark, 82% Super Dark, Coconut Flakes, Dark Mint, Salted Caramel, Orange with Chilli, Raspberries in Dark and Toasted Hazelnut, all vegan and all gluten free. The packaging is illustrated and recyclable and almost nobody recycles it, because people keep the wrappers, which is either very good design or a mild storage problem depending on the household.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor more worth eating, have a browse of our \u003ca href=\"\/en-gb\/collections\/food-hall\"\u003efood hall\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/en-gb\/collections\/gift-sets-hampers\"\u003egift sets and hampers\u003c\/a\u003e collections, or carry on to \u003ca href=\"\/en-gb\/collections\/tea-coffee\"\u003etea and coffee\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/en-gb\/collections\/gifts\"\u003egifts\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/en-gb\/collections\/kitchen-dining\"\u003ekitchen and dining\u003c\/a\u003e.
