Our chocolate is more than just chocolate. Sure we are not the only people to make chocolate, but we do craft our chocolate with care and awareness. And while there are a lot of shortcuts and ethical issues that are completely ignored we like to think we form part of the better side of the chocolate industry. We strive to make your experience at El Buen Cacao an educational one, and having the opportunity to do that is quite the highlight for us. Thank you to the amazing group of people that joined us yesterday. It is our pleasure! • Open weekdays 11 AM to 5 PM, and weekends 10 AM to 7 PM. . . . . . . #elbuencacao #beantobar #chocolate #singleorigin #organic #ethicallysourced #sustainablygrown #cacao #darkchocolate #unapologeticallydark #madeinidyllwild #madeinhouse #chocolatetour #worldchocolatemasters #chocolatetasting #chocolaterevolution #revolution #educational #chocolatedoneright #onechocolateaday #eatchocolate #shopchocolate #drinkchocolate #craftchocolate #upinthemountains #sanjacinto #mountains #idyllwild #california #ebc (at El Buen Cacao) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqbEotbvqrl/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Moringa tree is known as the "miracle tree" because of its many health benefits. Moringa is incredibly nutrient-dense, and is a great source of protein, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Moringa is a great addition to any diet! #freshmoringa #localharvest #healthymoringa #sustainablygrown #naturalsuperfood

This year, give gifts that support a happier, healthier planet and people! ❄🌿🍫❤All of our cacao is sourced directly from our growers in Tabasco, Mexico @haciendacacaoterajesusmaria (no middle-man) where it is #ethicallysourced #sustainablygrown #organic #fairtrade #freefromchildlabour and #freefromslavelabor . We then stone-ground it into delicious, handcrafted, small batch, fresh chocolate in Los Angeles, CA. We are a #local and #womanowned business striving to share the full potential of cacao. It's not just candy, it's a #superfood! . Give a gift that shows you care about our planet and the health and happiness of the farmers who feed us and treat us 😉 everyday. . @slavefreechocolate_org #holidayseason #giftideas #giftbaskets #cacao #environment #showyoucare #bebetter #doit #chocolate #chocolateria #chocolatefactory #chocolatemakers #candy #dolci #mexicanchocolate #gifts #holidaychocolate (at ChocoVivo) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6TxAREhQmr/?igshid=aoqkzq1swz11
