BOHO Chocolate

BOHO Chocolate is a bean-to-bar artisanal chocolate maker based in Florence, Massachusetts, USA. We specialize in crafting high-quality chocolate using organic cacao beans sourced directly from farmers and small cooperatives located in South America and Madagascar. We also have USA relationships with the folks at Uncommon Cacao, Gino Dalla Gasperina of Meridian Cacao, and Daniel O'Doherty of Cacao Services, Honolulu, Hawaii.

 

BOHO Chocolate is committed to ethical business practices that involve social, economic, and environmental sustainability. All of our chocolate is organic and made from scratch using traditional methods that prioritize flavor and quality. In 2021 we were certified organic by the USDA. We offer a wide range of chocolate with over twenty-five unique flavor profiles.

 

The BOHO Chocolate brand embraces a bohemian-inspired aesthetic in packaging, marketing, and design that reflects our commitment to simplicity, creativity, and individuality.

How it all started:

Founder Charles Burke started his journey selling chocolates and confections from a small shop in New England over twenty-five years ago.  Having always wanted to make his own chocolate, he became enamoured with the bean-to-bar manufacturing process and set out to produce, from start to finish, award-winning organic chocolate. 

 

With no idea how to begin, he booked a flight to South America with a friend, where they met up with the folks from TAZA Chocolate and visited farmers, cooperatives, and local chocolate makers.  He fell in love, and BOHO Chocolate was born.
