Meet Elsa, the passionate bean-to-bar chocolatier!

For six years, Elsa made her home in Ecuador, immersing herself in the world of sustainable tourism. It was there that she organised journeys along the cocoa route, and her fascination with this product truly took shape.

Upon returning to Europe, her passion for sustainable food led her to embark on a journey in the world of chocolate making. She pursued formal training at a renowned school of chocolate and confectionery. Elsa also honed her chocolate tasting skills through the International Institute of Chocolate and Cacao Tasting.

After gaining valuable experience working alongside a well-known chocolatier, she decided to share her expertise with fellow chocolate enthusiasts. Eventually, she took a bold step and opened her own café dedicated entirely to cocoa.

Elsa is a true expert in the bean-to-bar process. She sources her cocoa beans from suppliers who work directly with growers, overseeing every step of the process from roasting to cracking, and all the way through to chocolate production.

Her mission is a noble one: to elevate the work of cocoa farmers and chocolate makers alike.
