Our longtime bestselling milk chocolate (vegan, ofc). Unlike the store-bought alternatives, this bar features four ingredients only – and sugar is not the first one.

To clarify: we love sugar, and there's a time and place for everything. But this isn't a candy bar, it's real chocolate. And even the most non-vegan, candy bar-loving aficionados can taste – and appreciate! – the difference.

We let the single-origin Haitian cacao drive the flavor. Combined with organic glyphosate-free oats, stone-ground for up to 72 hours continuously, this bar is as creamy and decadent as the milkiest of any dairy bar you may have once dabbled in.

And yet, technically – with 49% cacao as the first ingredient – this is technically dark chocolate! Dark, but not bitter; milky, but not too sweet.

Sharing craft chocolate as a gift, or looking to serve slowcocoa at a gathering and not totally sure of someone's preferences? This is the slowcocoa bar we'd recommend.

Flavor-rich, allergen-free, intensely creamy: there's something here for everyone.

Organic Haitian cacao, organic unrefined sugar*, organic cacao butter, organic gluten-free oats.

*Select coconut sugar or unrefined cane sugar.

Handcrafted in a fully vegan, gluten-free facility powered by 100% renewable wind energy.

PISA, or Produits Des Iles SA, is at the forefront of transforming the cacao processing and export landscape in Haiti. Before PISA stepped in, the norm in Haiti was for large exporters to buy unfermented, dried, low-grade cocoa from smallholder farmers at prices that didn't meet even the commodity market standards. This all changed in 2013 when PISA introduced a centralized processing facility, the first of its kind in Haiti, marking a significant shift in the country's cacao production.

Their vision was inspired by Haiti's neighbor, the Dominican Republic, known for its high-quality organic cacao. Under the guidance of Aline Etlicher and Fenise Pierre Antoine, PISA set out to mirror this success in Haiti. Their approach is inclusive, working with over 1,000 organic-certified smallholder producers, including 495 female producers in 2022 – a standout figure among a traditionally male-dominated industry. They buy wet cacao directly from these farmers at premium prices, process it centrally to enhance its quality, and then sell it as a superior product in the specialty cacao market.

PISA also played a pivotal role in establishing APROCANO, a producer association that oversees technical assistance and certification programs. Despite the considerable political and social upheavals in Haiti, especially in 2022, PISA persists in its remarkable mission to deliver top-notch organic Haitian beans to the craft chocolate market. Their cacao continually stands out, with a flavor profile that spans notes of classic chocolate, to almond butter, blackberries, blueberries and vanilla cream. We also love to note, thanks to the wonderful annual transparency reports from our sourcing partner Uncommon Cacao, that 95% of the central fermentation facility’s power is sourced from renewable solar.
