Artisan Brand Directory
A directory of independent artisan chocolate brands crafting bars, truffles and drinking chocolate with care and integrity. These makers focus on quality cacao, thoughtful sourcing and small-batch production, often working closely with growers and celebrating flavour above all else.

Artisan chocolate reflects its origins more clearly than most foods. Differences in cacao variety, climate, fermentation, and roasting all shape the final bar. Texture, snap, and melt are as important as flavour, and small changes in process can produce noticeably different results.
Within artisan food and drink, chocolate occupies a particular space. It can be enjoyed on its own, used sparingly in baking, or paired thoughtfully with coffee, wine, or spirits. The best artisan chocolate does not aim to please everyone. It invites curiosity and rewards those willing to slow down and taste.
This directory exists to make those producers easier to find. Not as a definitive ranking, but as a considered introduction to artisan chocolate shaped by origin, process, and careful hands.
I hope you love the businesses I’ve selected for our directory and discover something beautiful on their websites.
