Our Story
Casa Bosques Chocolate is founded on the exploration of the history, methods, origins, & culture of chocolate.
From tree to bar, Casa Bosques crafts chocolate with the same care as the farmers tending and harvesting each heirloom bean. We source from small ranches throughout Mexico and Latin America, primarily from one single smallholder ranch in the southern region of Pichucalco, Chiapas, Mexico, allowing close involvement every step of the way.
Our chocolate begins with just two ingredients: Heirloom cacao beans and organic cane sugar.
By using these two ethically sourced ingredients as a canvas, the tones and nuances in each individual blend are generously highlighted.
We never add emulsifiers, artificial flavorings, or preservatives.

The ingredients are poetic, wonderful, and endless. We pay no heed to the convention, but every attention to craftsmanship & the creative power of imagination.
Each bite becomes the seduction of a moment, the joy of a journey, a delicate treat, and a moment to share.
