Catalog

Chocolate & Cocoa

Chocolate made in Vietnam: bars, filled bars and boxed assortments, including the bean to bar makers working with Vietnamese cacao from the Mekong delta and the central highlands.

The one confectionery line where Vietnam is the origin

Most of this catalogue is a global brand manufactured in Vietnam. Chocolate is different: Vietnam grows cacao, mostly Trinitario in Ben Tre, Tien Giang and Dak Lak, and the bean to bar makers here have won international awards with single origin bars. That is a story a buyer can sell, and it is the reason this shelf is worth opening rather than filling with the same bars available from any European supplier.

Temperature is part of the specification

Chocolate is the one line in this catalogue that a hot container can destroy. Above roughly thirty degrees the fat migrates and the bar blooms, which does not make it unsafe but does make it unsellable. That means the sailing season, the stowage position and whether the box is reefer or dry are part of the order rather than the freight forwarder's problem. Say the destination and the month, and the desk will tell you what is sensible.
