Collection: Ocelot Chocolate - Artisan Organic Chocolate Made in Scotland

Ocelot Chocolate

Why choose Ocelot? Nice packaging, tasty chocolate - there’s plenty of that around. Is there is more to our chocolate? YES! and here’s what…

They Support Farmers: The beans used to make our chocolate come from the world’s best - and best paid - cacao growers. Through Original Beans they pay 100% living income to farmers, as well as providing them with vital resources. In 2023 Original Beans schooled 2,944 farmers, 40% of them women.

They GROW Trees: When you break a piece of Ocelot you are breaking ground for a tree. To-date Original Beans and Ocelot customers have helped grow more than 3 million trees in origin (the world’s longest-running one-for-one forestation programme). And they don’t just outsource this work: their growers plant the trees at source, regenerating the forests around them.

They are 100% Organic: their farmers and suppliers work with nature, not against it.

They Protect the Rainforest: In 2023 their farmers protected 8 hotspot rainforests. Through their sister companies One4One Trees program, they support indigenous growers in planting and nurturing native trees, contributing to forest restoration and biodiversity.

They Empower Women: Original Beans employs hundreds of female farmers, most notably at Femmes de Virunga (DRC); where hundreds of women have taken local leadership to become craft cocoa growers, heal their war-torn communities, and regenerate the forests: together these women have planted more than 100,000 trees!

Their packaging is fully recyclable / compostable, and they are on our way to a net-carbon negative footprint. In 2023 Original Beans drew down 15,221 tonnes of CO2.
