ABOUT US
BERRY & CACAO strawberries transcend mere indulgence—they offer a refined experience. We are devoted to crafting a sophisticated and unique chocolate strawberry that invites you on a journey of unparalleled satisfaction. Each strawberry is meticulously enrobed in luxurious velvety smooth chocolate and generously coated with organic toppings.
We are committed to sourcing only the finest ingredients, carefully selecting the freshest long-stem strawberries from the sun-kissed fields of Mexico to the rich soils of the Salinas Valley in Northern California, Arizona, and Oxnard. We partner with dedicated farmers who uphold sustainable practices and embrace innovative agricultural techniques that promote the well-being of both people and the planet.
Each strawberry is hand-selected and gently rinsed with purified filtered water to preserve its purity. Given the porous nature of strawberries, they can absorb contaminants commonly found in tap water—such as fluoride, heavy metals, and chlorine. By using only the pure filtered water, we ensure that each berry is thoroughly cleansed of any residual impurities, providing you with the freshest, most pristine strawberries possible.
Our fair-trade certified chocolate is meticulously crafted from the finest cacao beans sourced from the heart of South America and West Africa. Kosher and gluten-free, our chocolate is tempered in small batches to achieve a silky, velvety texture that melts gracefully on the palate. Rich with up to 70% cacao, our dark chocolate offers a deep, robust flavor, while our white chocolate, with up to 35% cocoa butter, delights with a creamy, indulgent finish.
What makes Berry & Cacao different?
Not all chocolate-covered strawberries are created equal. Many brands prioritize quantity over quality, mass-producing their products to reduce costs. Unfortunately, this often results in a lack of attention to detail and inferior craftsmanship. Consequently, these brands are typically associated with lower price points.
Moreover, they frequently rely on subpar chocolate, made with inferior cacao beans, excessive sugar, artificial additives, and preservatives. Many substitute cocoa butter with vegetable oil, a critical ingredient for achieving the smooth, velvety texture that defines high-quality chocolate. The higher the cocoa butter content, the more luxurious the chocolate. Some even forgo real chocolate altogether, opting for imitation products like 'candy melts'—a sweet substance that mimics chocolate but requires no tempering. If it doesn't contain cocoa butter, it's not true chocolate.
At BERRY & CACAO, we take great pride in using only the finest ingredients. Our chocolate is Fair-Trade certified, crafted with premium cacao and rich cocoa butter. We temper our chocolate in small batches, ensuring a smooth, velvety finish. Furthermore, we use only organic toppings to complement the quality of our product. We stand firmly for excellence, and our commitment is to deliver the most exceptional chocolate strawberries you’ve ever had the pleasure of tasting.
