Hand crafted artisan chocolate, made from bean to bar in Vanuatu, South Pacific
Vanuatu Archipelago
Origins
Aelan means “Island” in Bislama, the language of Vanuatu. Aelan Chocolate Makers was born from a passion for cocoa and artisanal manufacturing, Based in the pristine Vanuatu archipelago, we use hand farmed cocoa grown in dark volcanic soil, giving it its rich flavour.
Giving Back To Local Growers
COCOA COMMUNITY
Since 2007, we have been working with communities of cocoa growers, helping them to rehabilitate plantations and improve fermenting and drying methods, our profits are equitably shared with our local suppliers. Our simple traditional recipe is based on mixing pure quality ingredients, cocoa beans and sugar to create these fine chocolate bars to savour and enjoy. More information are available of the activ association (www.activassociation.org) website on the projects with the cocoa producers.
From Bean To Bar
Taste the journey
Each island has its own unique flavour. Using this unique raw ingredient, we take our time to hand-process every batch from bean to bar all in Vanuatu.
