Trace cacao butter more than barely
The main ingredient of white chocolate is cacao butter. But while a growing count of chocolate companies show a degree of concern about the origin of the cocoa solids they buy, most ignore the question of cacao butter, because it moves through a different supply chain. Since Original Beans’ regenerative business aims to close all loops, plus our hometown Amsterdam is the center of cacao butter manufacturing in the world, we are on the butter traceability case.
After reconnaissance trips to Yuna region and collaborating with cacao butter processors in Amsterdam, our current organic cacao butter is traceable, but not fully to our satisfaction. As always full of beans we are working on an industry upgrade in this respect. Stay tuned!
