Chocolate's essential rainforest

the essential rainforest

Fine cacao needs healthy rainforests with varied plant life to help it withstand wind, heat and pests. Cacao's natural pollinators thrive only in the rainforest. Cacao trees yield the most when in their diverse natural habitat.

Some cacao growers in the Americas, along with the National Wildlife Federation and the Smithsonian, have discovered that by nurturing the conditions to grow the best cacao for chocolate, they help preserve some of the world's great rainforests as well as tropical wildlife.

Chocolat Céleste creates chocolate delicacies for the connoisseur. Our award-winning truffles and gifts are based on devotion to artistic presentation and flavor perfection. Every day, our chocolatiers craft each piece using the finest ingredients. We use premium European chocolate made from “first cut” cacao beans from around the world. And we continually search for rare and emerging cacao estates from which we can source. To this foundation, we introduce the best ingredients: fresh artisanal cream and butter; and the marketplace's finest liqueurs, nuts, fruits and spices. The secret to our success is allowing the natural flavor notes to take center stage. We never use preservatives.
