Frequently Asked Questions 💭

What is Chocolating®?

CHOCOLATING® offers a range of unique hot chocolates, plain or with 100% natural flavors, combining raw origins with a world of flavors. They are made with real 72% dark chocolate, sourced from the finest terroirs, enhanced by an organic, neutral plant-based drink, to reveal all the aromas of the cocoa tree's fruits. The goal is to achieve the purest expression of dark chocolate in all its facets.

Where does Chocolating® come from?

Chocolating is the result of co-founder Hani's passion for hot chocolate and his wife Caroline's interest in nutrition and health. After 30 years of concocting it in their kitchen, and then realizing how difficult it was to find good hot chocolate outside their homes, they both decided to take it out of their lair and share it with as many people as possible, encouraged by their friends and family. And thus, the Chocolating project was born.

Is it one product? multiple products?

Chocolating® is a range of hot chocolates, reflecting the diversity of terroirs and the versatility of chocolate. Blended chocolates, single-origin raw chocolates from Latin America, Africa, or Asia, as well as combinations of chocolate with natural fruit, dried fruit, and spice flavors, will gradually enrich the range.

What type of chocolate is it made from?

It is now produced with professional dark chocolate couverture, with a 72% cocoa content. It is the result of a blend of the best terroirs from Mexico, Guatemala, Colombia, Nigeria, Ivory Coast, Ghana, and Indonesia. It is UTZ certified, a label that represents sustainable agriculture offering better prospects for producers, their families, and our planet, according to reasoned, fair, and eco-responsible agriculture.
