GOOD COCOA

for the best chocolate

Cocoa is the most important ingredient in our chocolate, which is why it needs to meet our high quality standards. We are firmly of the opinion that we can only source really good cocoa if the people who grow it and the environment in which it is grown are doing well.

Our passion for delicious

NUTS

Hazelnuts play a key role in many of our most popular varieties. We trace their origin back to the processor in the country of origin and work closely with our suppliers to implement clear sustainability criteria. In order to exert even more influence on the quality of our hazelnuts, we are now developing our own hazelnut farm in the south of France.

MILK

your pleasure is our responsibility

No milk means no milk chocolate. We source our milk powder from long-standing partners in Germany and Ireland, so we know exactly where it comes from. It meets our highest quality standards. Unfortunately, there is no universal sustainability standard for milk in Germany. Together with the Thünen Institute, we have therefore worked on the QM sustainability module in order to create the basis for a sustainability standard. Our aim is for all our partners to commit to this standard.

PALM FAT

as much as necessary, as little as possible

We only use palm fat for selected varieties and only in fillings, i.e. not in the actual chocolate mass. The vegetable palm fat offers many sensory benefits, for example the fact that the chocolate only melts in the mouth when eaten. We also source our palm fat within the scope of long-term partnerships and it is fully traceable (segregated) and RSPO-certified. This also means that we contribute to protecting the rainforests and preserving biodiversity.
