About '57 Chocolate

Meet Kimberly and Priscilla

Kimberly fell in love with the possibility of making chocolate when she went on a factory tour in Switzerland. Disheartened by Ghana's lack of value addition to cocoa, Kim took up the challenge of learning to make chocolate, right at home!

Priscilla’s appreciation for chocolate has risen to new heights after learning how to make chocolate from bean to bar. She is excited to embark on this amazing journey with her sister, Kimberly, to create a business that will last beyond their lifetime.

'57 Chocolate is the pioneer bean to bar chocolate company in Ghana. '57 is short for 1957, the year of Ghana’s independence. '57 channels Ghana’s Independence Day spirit by manufacturing finished goods using the country's resources to create delicious treats in small batches.

Since 2016, they’ve taken dried cocoa beans and processed them into luxurious chocolate and confections. Their products are a reflection and celebration of African art and culture.

Why We Love Them

UNIQUE FLAVORS

They spotlight some of Ghana's unique, local flavors like moringa (a superfood), roselle (a species of the hibsicus flower), and tiger nut (an edible tuber).

CHOCOLATE THAT IMPACTS

They are helping to evolve Ghana's cacao industry from just exporting raw materials to creating finished goods; thereby developing the next generation of chocolate makers in Ghana.

TASTE GHANA'S REAL COCOA

Their products contain a high cocoa content, less sugar, and less milk. Their intention is for you to taste real chocolate - not candies full of artifical flavors and colors.
