Who We Are |

White Chocolate, Cashew & Bee Pollen and Peanut Butter Dream Cupcakes ShanCoco is a small family run business based in NW London which was established five years ago to design great tasting yet high quality and healthy chocolates, as a reaction against all the high sugar and extremely low content cocoa bulk standard 'chocolate' flooding the market. At this time, the raw food revelation was beginning to establish itself on a wider scale as a way of eating healthier minimally cooked food which retained much more of its nutrients and gave the body a natural and more sustained boost. Raw chocolates began finding their way into more commercial outlets such as Waitrose and Holland and Barrett and their benefits becoming understood to more and more people. We felt that many of the varieties of raw chocolate available were a little bit bland and somewhat unadventurous, so we decided to create a more exciting range which influenced by our South Asian background, would burst with flavour, spices, aromas and gourmet flavours. ShanCoco Flavours: We use high quality ingredients and source pure, organic and natural products as much as possible. Our range varies depending on season and availability. Unlike most high street cocoa powder, the cocoa we use is minimally processed, therefore retaining its mineral content and healthy properties. We do not use granulated sugar (brown or white) in our products; instead we use lower glycemic index natural sweeteners including Yacon Syrup, Agave and Date Syrup. Our product range is vegetarian and mostly vegan. To be more eco-conscious we use very simple packaging rather than fancy boxes, ribbons and labelling. We strongly believe all our time and effort should go into the chocolates themselves rather than their containers. Our Flavours include: Our Pirate Fruity Nut Superbar is a twist on the traditional version; it contains sultanas, mixed nuts, sweet spices, oh and a wee dash of rum Chilli, Coconut & Lime Christmas Three Kings Chocolate spice bar Macadamia, Chestnut Honey & Sea Salt bar Tangerine & Brazil Nut Cashew & Cardamon White Chocolate Cupcake with Cashew & Bee Pollen Peanut Butter Dream Cupcake; Our version is a 3 layered cocoa rich heaven with a twist of citrus ShanCoco Plain; Pure and simple chocolate yet very flavoursome Peppermint, Wild Carob & crushed Cocoa Nibs White chocolate, Yacon syrup & Goji Berry Apricot & Cinnamon Date & Rose Otto Masala Chai |
