Flavours of roasted nuts and cappuccino in this chocolate from rare Amelonado cacao inspires like the strong women lifting up lives around Virunga Park.

On the ground in Congo since 2008, we have witnessed strong women - or “Femmes” - restoring their communities from the rubbles of war. Your purchase of the strong Femmes 55% empowers these female leaders for peace.

Know Your Bean: Amelonado
The quality of our Virunga chocolates shows how important soil, climate and skillful processing  are to make the best from a bean. The strong Femmes de Virunga 55% chocolate is the result of several years continued training the farming women until they have become masters at growing, fermenting and drying cacao.
Empower Strong Women with Strong Cacao
Witnessing first hand how women in the Eastern Congo assume leadership roles and live and work in a sustainable manner, despite the dangers facing them in the region, we put our full support behind a project dedicated to improving their lives. Teaching Virunga women how to write, lead, earn money, plant their own cacao and develop their own institutions inspires us all.
