The Academy of Chocolate was created in 2005 by five of Britain’s leading chocolate professionals, united in the belief that eating fine chocolate is one of life’s great pleasures. Their aim is to campaign for better chocolate and to promote a greater awareness of the difference between fine chocolate and mass-produced chocolate confectionery.
The aims of the Academy of Chocolate are:
to encourage chocolate lovers to ‘look beyond the label’ in order to differentiate between real chocolate and chocolate confectionery
to improve the standard and knowledge of chocolate by promoting an understanding of the ingredients of chocolate, throughout the chain, from tree to bar
to encourage the transparent sourcing of cocoa beans from the plantation alongside socially and environmentally aware production.
