Why us

I’m Vicky, the founder of Meraki Cacao. I love chocolate, but most of it is pretty unhealthy, laden with refined sugar and unhealthy vegetable fat.  I believe what we eat should nourish our bodies, even treats! After trying and disliking pretty much every ‘healthy’ chocolate out there, I set about creating my own.

Description

California

 Who hasn’t visited California? So many places to explore and vast empty roads to drive along, feeling free with the car roof down, wind in your hair and great music blasting from the radio.  We loved California and many years ago did an amazing road trip. We started in San Diego camping in the deserts including the Joshua Tree National Park, watched rare Bighorn Sheep and humming birds before moving up to Yosemite National Park, Sequoia National Park, the utterly incredible Grand Canyon and finishing up in San Francisco. We saw brown bears, coyotes, numerous birds of prey as well as so many other birds and wildlife. The Sequoia trees were immense, we loved spending time in the forest, in awe of such very old trees. We went grey whale watching and for an ecologist like me it was just fantastic. Everyday was like opening a treasure chest.
 Of course the food there is amazing too and it’s easy to find lots of delicious healthy options. Did you know that the region of California grows the most almonds? That’s why our almond cacao bar is called California. We’ve also chosen the Californian brown bear to go on our packaging. 
 Since we created this cacao bar, however, the Californian almond industry has had some bad press.  This is due to the recent drought the region has experienced and the amount of water that has been needed to keep growing the almonds.  Concerns have been raised about the subsequent impacts that almond growing has had on the environment. Also all almonds from this region have to be heat treated and pasteurised, stripping them of vital nutrients. It is therefore becoming increasingly difficult to source organic California almonds in the UK. 
 As a company it is important to us that we promote and support organic and sustainable agriculture, with minimal impact on the environment.  For this reason and for the time being, our almonds are currently sourced from sustainable sources in Europe which promote honey bee conservation. We hope you understand our reasons for doing this and that it doesn’t stop you thinking about California when you are trying this cacao bar. We’ve tried to pack as many almonds into our bars as possible and they also include our homemade almond butter ground into the raw cacao mix.  We think it’s delicious and can’t wait to hear what you think.
Meraki Cacao make hand made raw cacao bars from individual organic, nutritious and unrefined ingredients.  Our products are a healthier alternative to mass produced chocolate which are better for you and the planet.  We use Peruvian Criollo cacao nibs and stone grind them together with Peruvian cacao butter, Palmyra Blossom Nectar (the most nutritious sweetener available), cashew nuts, lucuma, hemp and sea salt.  Some flavours have homemade almond or hazelnut butter added as well, which give the bars a lovely richness.  We only ever add natural flavourings.  Each bar is approximately 60% cacao.  Our flavours are inspired by travel experiences we have had or would like to have and so we hope they will invoke happy memories for our customers when you eat them!
Being as sustainable, ethical and eco friendly as possible is at the heart of our business.  We only use recyclable packaging and our labels are printed on recycled paper with vegetable based inks. We try to offset our carbon footprint and have recently joined Ecologic to help achieve our sustainability goals.
A Happy Day is a Cacao day!
Vicky
