About Cocoa Runners

Cocoa Runners Description
We are in the midst of a revolution. A chocolate revolution. From Brooklyn to Budapest, Cleethorpes to Copenhagen and San Francisco to Saigon, passionate “bean-to-bar” chocolate makers are creating tantalizingly delicious chocolate bars. They source premium beans directly from small farmers who value provenance and quality. They manufacture in small batches and maintain high standards. They win prizes galore. Their bars are varied and sublimely flavourful. When you taste one there is no going back. But finding these bars isn’t easy. That’s why set up Cocoa Runners. We love these chocolate bars. We run around the world discovering these makers and farmers. And then we send them to you. If you love great chocolate, please join the club!

With makers from Cleethorpes to Copenhagen, Woodbridge to Warsaw and San Fancisco to Saigon, we'll be tasting a wide range of bars along the way.
