Honest Chocolate Since 2012
Since 2012 we’ve made chocolate in Cremorne, Melbourne. Organic, single-origin, bean to bar. Every bar uses five ingredients or fewer, most just three: cacao, coconut sugar, cacao butter.
How we work
We begin with tiny samples, map the flavour of each origin, and tune our process until it’s right. Only then do we scale. Each bar is designed to taste like where its cacao comes from.

Why is Hunted+Gathered different from other chocolate?
There aren't many people making chocolate from start to finish anymore and this is something we specialise in. From sourcing fine flavoured cacao beans from around the world, to roasting, grinding, and conching in house. Being in control of all processes ensures we can focus on quality and know what has gone into the chocolate and how it has been treated along the way. As we are sourcing such full flavoured and high quality cacao beans, we process them with care and at low temperatures as to not lose the pure characteristics of the beans.
