Gru Grococo is the world's first chocolate created specifically for environmentalist. Actually, Gru Grococo was meant to be enjoyed by everybody, but it's made in a way that will appeal to those who strive to live a green lifestyle.
Gru Grococo is a joint venture between UK-based chocolate maker Rococo and the Grenada Chocolate Company. The chocolate is made from cocoa harvested and processed in a solar-powered factory. The chocolate is then shipped to the UK in a wooden sailboat, where it retails for $18.74 a bar. That may sound steep, but the price of the chocolate is meant to reflect the actual cost of creating the eco-friendly Gru Grococo bar. Additionally, all of the profits from the bars go back to the chocolate makers themselves.
