It caters to consumers interested in artisanal chocolate and single-origin cocoa products.

help Zak's Chocolate FAQ

Is Zak's Chocolate located in Portland or Arizona?

Zak's Chocolate operates its small workshop in Scottsdale, Arizona, not Portland, Oregon. The company began with co-founder Maureen's home chocolate-making hobby.

Does Zak's make chocolate from cacao beans in its own workshop?

Yes. Zak's sorts and roasts cacao beans, makes chocolate, presses cocoa butter, and packages its products at its Scottsdale workshop.

What is in a Zak's single-origin dark chocolate bar?

Zak's says its single-origin dark bars contain cacao beans, organic cane sugar, and a small amount of cocoa butter. The cocoa butter is pressed in-house from beans of the same origin.

How does Zak's House Blend differ from its single-origin bars?

A single-origin bar highlights beans from one growing region, whose terroir influences the flavor. Zak's House Blend combines origins to create a consistent proprietary profile used in bars and confections.
