help Chocolate Mayordomo FAQ
Where does Chocolate Mayordomo come from?
Chocolate Mayordomo is a Mexican brand from Oaxaca, not a Portland chocolatier. The company says it began in 1956 as a family business originating in Tlacolula, Oaxaca.
What ingredients are traditionally used in Chocolate Mayordomo?
The company describes its traditional chocolate as using cacao, sugar, cinnamon, and almonds. This gives it a distinctive Oaxacan table-chocolate profile rather than the simpler formulation of many dark chocolate bars.
How is Chocolate Mayordomo usually served?
It is commonly prepared as Mexican drinking chocolate, mixed with hot liquid and often frothed. It can also be used in Oaxacan-style recipes and mole.
Is Chocolate Mayordomo a bean-to-bar U.S. chocolate brand?
No. It is an established Mexican chocolate company associated with Oaxaca and traditional chocolate de mesa. Its identity is tied to regional ingredients and preparation methods rather than a Portland-based U.S. bean-to-bar business.
