Sustainable Hot Chocolate Mixes

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This Chocolatey Drink Mix is Made from Premium Organic Cacao

— December 17, 2015 — Social Good
'Treehouse Chocolate Co.' is an artisan chocolate company that makes drinking chocolate from premium organic cacao. Although there is no shortage of hot chocolate mixes on the market, many of these products are made with artificial ingredients and unhealthy additives. This company aims to produce quality chocolate that is good for consumers and for cacao farmers.

Treehouse Chocolate Co. specializes in producing gourmet drinking chocolate in flavors such as Coffee, Coconut and Sea Salt. The drinking chocolate is unlike traditional hot chocolate in that it is thicker and far more rich in taste. The Treehouse drinking chocolate also differs from other drink mixes in that it is made from premium organic cacao that has been sourced from a farmer-owned cooperative in Northern Peru.

With cooler temperatures ahead, Treehouse Chocolate Co. provides a more sustainable way to enjoy a warm cup of cocoa.
