Cacaosuyo is a Peruvian chocolate company founded in 2012 in Lima, driven by a passion for chocolate and a mission to elevate Peruvian cacao to global premium standards. The company describes itself as “more than a brand” – it’s a testament to Peru’s chocolate heritage and “a banner that proclaims aloud that the best chocolate in the world is Peruvian.”
They operate exclusively with Peruvian cacao, transforming and redefining the chocolate experience by identifying the finest genetic material from Peru’s various cacao-growing regions. They view themselves as guardians of “the best kept secret of the Incas,” bringing this ancient treasure to global perfection. It is working – Their chocolates have won consecutive World Gold medals at the International Chocolate Awards with their single-origin dark chocolates from Amazonas, Cuzco, and Piura regions. Most notably, their Piura Milk chocolate bar has been recognized as the “Best Milk Chocolate in the World” five times (2015, 2016, 2020, 2021, and 2022).
Cacaosuyo’s approach is both meticulous and passionate. They invest heavily in cacao knowledge, collaborating with international advisors and farmers across different regions. Their close partnerships with small farmers ensure full traceability for every piece of chocolate they create, while also improving farmers’ quality of life by integrating them actively into the fine chocolate value chain.
Every chocolate bar reflects "the heart and soul of Peruvian earth and their producers." Cacaosuyo combines tradition, innovation, and unwavering dedication to deliver what they consider among the world's best chocolates, making Peruvian cacao excellence accessible worldwide.
