Madécasse, Madagascar via Brooklyn

Seven years ago, something special happened in Madagascar.  No one tells their story better than they:

We were Peace Corps volunteers in Madagascar. We fell in love with the people and the country and wanted to do more.  So we started making chocolate there. Even though 70% of the world’s cocoa comes from Africa, no one had ever really done this before.

The result of their inspiration, Madécasse operates out of Brooklyn, New York, distributing fair trade chocolate bars made from bean to bar in Africa.  

If the refreshing taste of sweet coconut brings you to tropical paradise, then a square of the Toasted Coconut bar is your ticket to a momentary getaway.
