Ethical
Chocolate on Purpose partners with the Cocoa Horizons program, which aims to create self-sustaining communities that protect nature and children, by driving cocoa farmer prosperity. The brand's chocolate is a blend of sustainably grown cacao beans from Ghana, Cote d’Ivoire, and Ecuador, which are fully traceable to the farms where they were grown. This sourcing contributes to the eradication of child forced labour and raising farmers above the poverty line. In 2022, 76% of farmers engaged in agroforestry, and 83,148 accessed micro-credit to develop farm business plans, with 43% accessing personal coaching to obtain land documentation. The brand contributes to empowering female cacao farmers and its chocolate is palm-oil free. Chocolate on Purpose is building a First Nations led supply chain to empower Australian indigenous communities and supports their sustainable growth by sourcing botanical ingredients from First Nations growers.
Sustainable
Chocolate on Purpose promotes sustainability and equity in the Australian native botanical and world cacao farming communities and the environment. They increase their buy from an Indigenous farmer for every extra production run by 10 kilos, contributing to their sustainable growth in the Australian native food and botanical supply chain. Their choice to purchase ethically sourced chocolate in 2022 contributed to 88% of cacao farmed by Cocoa Horizon participants not contributing to deforestation and farming practices integrating environmental protection, agroforestry restoration and shade tree distribution protected against drought, leading to farmer prosperity, a reduction of forced labour and sequestering 140,929 tonnes of CO2. They also prevent the death of 16 orangutans daily by not using palm oil. The brand also practices energy-saving, recycling and composting in their operations, purchases Aboriginal Carbon Credits, and invents "Mindful Indulgence" by moulding their chocolate creations in pieces packaged in a zip-sealed pouch for conscious consumption and continued enjoyment.

The taste was sensational, I couldn’t put it down. The whole family loved it and it was smooth and delicious. I particularly loved the artwork drawn on the block of chocolate.

I was impressed that the cacao beans are sustainably grown and palm oil free. I’m also impressed that they donate a percentage of their sales to First Nations charities.
