Question 1

Does your chocolate contain alcohol?

Accepted Answer

## The short answer is no, but ...
We do not add alcohol to any of our products. Some of our Aged editions have been aged in empty casks or barrels that previously stored alcohol. In this case, aroma compounds from the cask/barrel impregnate the chocolate and impart different aromas. We have conducted laboratory testing and the lab was unable to detect any ethanol/alcohol (i.e. the reading was below their minimum threshold). Although it is unlikely, it is possible that trace amounts of alcohol could enter the chocolate.

Question 2

My chocolate/package arrived damaged, what should I do next?

Accepted Answer

**First of all please TAKE A PHOTO of the damage**

We apologize if this happens. In order to resolve the issue satisfactorily we ask you to take a photo (or several photos) that clearly show the damage to the product. This will assist us in processing your complimentary shipping insurance claim ASAP.

We’ve spent a great deal of time and resources trying to figure out the best possible way to protect your chocolate during shipment. Between our farmers and our production in Ecuador there are only two other steps between you and your chocolate: our warhouse and fulfilment team and the courier/postal service. It is very rare that a package arrives damaged, but on the odd occasion something unintended can occur. Rest assured we will resolve any issue of damage, loss or theft of your order.

**You are entitled to complimentary insurance**

If your chocolate is melted or severely discolored upon arrival due to extreme weather, you are entitled to file an insurance claim for a refund or replacement. [Click here](https://library.toakchocolate.com/faqs/do-you-offer-shipping-insurance) to view the process for filing an insurance claim. While it is not necessary, we do appreciate if you can advise us of any damage as this will help us to reduce the risk of it occuring again and we can also assist with a speedy resolution of your insurance claim.
 
**If my bar is broken can I still eat it?**

If the bar is broken (which can occasionally happen due to handling during shipment) but otherwise the coloration of the bar is normal, we consider the bar still in good form for tasting and enjoyment. However we understand that you have paid for your chocolate to arrive in pristine condition and should you not be satisfied with the condition in which it was received, you are entitled to file an insurance claim.

Question 3

Is your chocolate certified organic?

Accepted Answer

**Organic Certification**

Yes, all of our chocolate is certified USDA Organic (with the EU equivalent), with the exception of our Galapagos edition.

The cacao for our Galapagos edition is sourced from only two small farms, both of which abide by organic standards and do not use any synthetic chemicals or other prohibited substances in their farm. Their decision to not certify their farms was an economic one: they don’t produce enough cacao to cover the high cost and heavy administrative burden of organic certification.

Question 9

How much do you pay your farmers?

Accepted Answer

**Direct (or Participatory) Trade leads to better prices for farmers**

We pay a farmgate price that is 3-8x the standard market price for “wet cacao.” Most cacao growers in Ecuador have no other choice but to sell their unfermented cacao to local intermediaries who typically pay $25 for a 100-pound sack. We pay $75-200 per sack of wet cacao, depending on the age of the trees that the cacao was harvested from—with the oldest trees fetching the highest price.

Why do we pay so much for this cacao? A few reasons. For one, it’s the rarest and most prized cacao variety in the world, which was [previously believed to be extinct](https://toakchocolate.com/blogs/news/near-extinction-of-the-worlds-oldest-cacao-variety). We’re also in the process of [preserving and restoring Heirloom Nacional cacao](https://toakchocolate.com/blogs/news/timeline-the-project-to-preserve-ancient-nacional-cacao) with our rainforest conservation partner [Third Millennium Alliance](http://www.tmalliance.org).
