help Islands Chocolate FAQ
Where is Islands Chocolate's cacao actually grown?
Its cacao is associated primarily with farms in St Vincent and the Grenadines, not Cornwall. The chocolate operation links Caribbean-grown cacao with the British company based in Cornwall.
Is Islands Chocolate really a single-origin producer?
Its defining origin is St Vincent, where its associated cocoa operation grows and processes cacao. Buyers should still inspect each wrapper because percentages and recipes vary even when the cacao origin remains the same.
What does Islands Chocolate control from farm to bar?
The business is tied to the St Vincent Cocoa Company, giving it unusually direct involvement in cultivation and post-harvest handling. This farm connection distinguishes it from British makers that purchase fermented beans through importers.
What flavors should I expect from Islands Chocolate?
The precise profile depends on cacao percentage, harvest, fermentation, and added ingredients. Its bars are designed to showcase St Vincent cacao, so a plain dark bar is the clearest way to taste the origin before trying flavored varieties.
