How it does good
Elevating chocolate and the standards for producing it
-
responsible sourcing
Alter Eco pays their farmers 1.3x (33% more) the standard Fair Trade payment. They also help cocoa farmers transition their land to dynamic agroforestry, training over 400 farmers in dynamic agroforestry since 2015. -
low carbon footprint
Founder Tristan Lecomte pioneered a method of integrating carbon offsetting within the company's own supply chain to improve soil conditions, biodiversity and crop health, all while making them carbon neutral since 2009. -
recyclable packaging
Alter Eco packs all of their chocolates in 100% compostable or recyclable packaging. And as a part of the OSC2 Packaging Collaborative, a leading sustainable packaging innovation, they've been working since 2013 on removing petroleum-based plastic from our landfills, oceans, and planet. -
supporting key causes
Not only does Alter Eco give their employees 3 paid days off a year to support causes of their choice, they also make regular cash and product donations to the organizations their team members are passionate about. These include clean-ups, food services, building green spaces in urban neighborhoods, supporting events for Earth Day and MLK Day, and contributing to Imperfect Produce and SF Recology.
How to use it
A truly versatile classic, this bar can be enjoyed on its own or added into any milk chocolate friendly recipe.
When you're done...
The paper wrapper, if clean and dry, is curbside recyclable. If contaminated with food waste, it can be composted. The foil wrapper is curbside recyclable once any chocolate crumbs have been removed."
These are general guidelines for broadly-recyclable materials. Check with your local recycler to confirm what they take.

United StatesGrass Fed milk chocolate bar
Although I appreciate the healthy aspect of this bar, I did not like the taste and either did the rest of the family. I will not be buying it again
Grass Fed Milk
I did not like the product. The bars have a strong dark-chocolate flavor to them. I much prefer a milk chocolate flavor that isn't intense. Your labelling misled me to believe I was receiving a milder product. I also disliked the hard edge and texture to the bars. I've noted this before in other dark chocolate bars. I hope you don't take this too harshly, but I prefer a Hershey's milk chocolate bar over your product.
For the people who appreciate life
This chocolate is for people who know how to slow down… savor, and enjoy flavors. For the kinds of people who close their eyes to taste food and notice the transformation on your tastebuds. This chocolate is smooth, gently sweet, just the right amount of milky, comforting..with a sweet and light scent of warm cacao. It reminds me of Christmas, opening my favorite gifts and receiving the best chocolate. Ooh this chocolate bar is a treat! I can only imagine it with an espresso, with ginger candy, an orange slice.. or even a gourmet s’mores. Yum.
Shocked, Amazed and wanting more.
I was shocked and horrified to learn that all of the chocolates I have been eating my whole life were made by child slaves who were forced into physical labor. I did lots of research for eco-friendly and organic brands that did not harm the environment or children and I found you guys. I'm a sucker for white chocolate so I bought a few bars and I was hooked. They taste amazing and were suprisingly cheap. I highly recommend
Amazing chocolate with just as amazing ingredients!
Really happy they have a grass fed chocolate line! I just wish they would use the milk of grass fed in all of alter ecos chocolates (especially the classic dark truffles as they’re my ultimate favorite!!)
