Mummy sent me the link to Askinosie Chocolate's website this morning and it happens to fit in perfectly with the whole "I like chocolate" feeling that's been rattling around in my tummy lately.
FAQs --
Our chocolate contains three (two, really, since the cocoa butter comes from the same cocoa beans) ingredients: cocoa beans, organic cane juice, and cocoa butter (that comes from the cocoa beans). We make the cocoa butter ourselves and we are the first small batch chocolate maker in the US to do this.
Our chocolate is unofficially organic. We are not certified, however, in part for the same reason we aren't Fair Trade certified -- the certification process is very expensive and our farmers can't afford it. Though we are not certified organic, our beans can be traced completely back to their origin. We state the bean origin, the bean variety, the percentage of cocoa content, the process (bean to bar), and a choc-o-lot number that our customers can use to trace their chocolate from the origin of the bean through each step to the final product. Our customers can literally visit our website, submit the Choc-o-lot number from their chocolate product, and read all the steps that lead up to the very moment their product was packaged.

I mean, how can you go wrong with chocolate? Everything is better with a little choco-power sprinkled in there.
