La Orquidea chocolate was founded on three principles:Criollo Tree
  1. Exceptional Chocolate

  2. Social Responsibility

  3. Environmental Preservation

La Orquidea chocolate uses the highest quality cocoa beans found in Peru and the world.  We preserve the natural aroma and flavors of our cacao in each of our bars. 

ChocolateMaking our chocolate near the fields where our small scale farmers' cacao is grown provides fair paying wages to women in eastern Peru.  Other chocolates send their beans halfway around the world to be turned into Women Smilingchocolate and then to you.  We stay as local as you can with chocolate.

Our two preservation funds help preserve rain forest and
biodiversity in Peru.  Our first fund, Cordillera Escalera, helps preserve a region of rain forest which is home to the spectacled bear.  The second helps preserve species of orchids that only grow in Peru.

We invite you to learn more about us, our beans, our bars, and a part of the world that is closer than you might think.  Thank you for taking interest in our socially responsible company and hope to hear from you soon.
