Read on to learn more. What is bean to bar? The term “bean to bar” is used to describe chocolate makers who make chocolate from scratch, that is, from the cacao bean, with a focus on fine flavour, fair relationships, and ethical practises. These people are at the forefront of a revolution in chocolate, and we want you to take part in it, one bite at a time. Most chocolate shops in the world (over 90%), from New York to Tokyo, are known as chocolatiers/chocolate melters. They don’t actually make their own chocolate.
