To celebrate together Valrhona's 100th anniversary, Valrhona had created with you Komuntu.

Suppliers, cocoa partners, employees, customers, consumers, you were all involved in every step of the way: from finding a unique taste to choosing a packaging design with symbolic patterns which reflects the diversity of Valrhona's different cocoa-producing countries.  All stakeholders of the ethical chocolate world, Valrhona embodies Komuntu.

Its name is a contraction of “Komunumo” which means community in Esperanto and “Ubuntu” an African concept which states “I am, because we are”.

Komuntu is a chocolate created with you, for you.

The whole supply chain has helped create Komuntu’s flavour.  It tells the story of all the people Valrhona has met around the world.  Thus, the blend of its cocoas has a singular aromatic character.  Because Komuntu is the physical embodiment of Valrhona's commitment to a fair, sustainable chocolate sector and creative, responsible gastronomy, during their 100th anniversary year Valrhona is redistributing all the profits made to cocoa producers.

Summer Shipping: 

At above 26°C, cocoa butter in chocolate products may start melting, and recrystallize as white streaks or marks on the chocolate's surface.  This phenomenon is called 'fat bloom'.  While it may not have the perfect appearance, bloomed chocolates are safe to eat and use in recipes.

During summer months when the temperature is relatively warm, we advise adding cold packaging to your shipment in order to minimize the risk of melting.  While we are careful and diligent in maintaining the temperature of your package, we unfortunately cannot guarantee the products in the cold packaging will not be affected by unusually warm weather and irregular transit time.
