In July 2024, we were proud to host NYC's first craft chocolate poetry night in collaboration with Kaleidoscope Studios in Brooklyn. We paired over a dozen original performances from talented local poets with a curated selection of slowcocoa craft chocolate.

This digital program is a record of that gathering. It publishes each poem in full, alongside poet bios and corresponding chocolate pairings. All proceeds from the digital program are going to Urban Word NYC, an incredible organization that empowers marginalized young voices in NYC and beyond through literacy programs, creative writing workshops, and performance opportunities – notably founding the National Youth Poet Laureate Program.

Donations are available on a sliding scale. To contribute an amount other than the preset options, simply choose any option and adjust the "quantity" to your desired contribution level. Thank you for your support!

100% compostable materials

Handwrapped in our very own slowcocoa studio in the bronx, nyc, powered by 100% renewable wind energy. So all that should linger is the taste (not waste).

Single-origin, mindful sourcing

We source our cacao from smallholder farmers located as close as possible to our studio in nyc, avoiding excess fuel waste while supporting the world's most innovative producers of fine cacao.

Powered by plants

100% vegan, always. (Not by accident.)

We try to infuse more life and energy into the world through our chocolate, never to take. Whenever possible, we source locally from our friends at some of new york's finest upstate farms.
