Price Increase Notice

We’re not sure if you’re aware, but the cost of cacao are skyrocketing, and as a result, we’ve been forced to increase our prices. 

Since 2022 we kept our product prices stable, however due to the rising cost of cocoa, the cost of our high-quality Belgium chocolate also increased. We want to notify you of the price increase starting October 2024. We appreciate your understanding and continued support during this time as this situation is beyond our control.

Chocolate News and Facts:

A failed crop in West Africa caused cocoa prices to surge from $2,500 to $4,000 per metric ton, significantly impacting the chocolate industry. For more information, you can read this article: A Failed Crop Rattled the Chocolate Industry. Then Speculators Came.

Climate patterns are partly to blame for rising costs. Cocoa is mostly produced in West Africa, Ghana and Ivory Coast with about 60% of the world’s crop. The El Niño weather event led to unseasonably high temperatures and changes to rainfall patterns that ravaged crops, causing a 50% decline in production.

Callebaut (Belgium Chocolate producer) increased chocolate prices on average 30%, resulting in a significant increase in the retail selling price of chocolate products worldwide.
