Organic Africa Chocolate is an initiative led by social entrepreneur Sergio Codonyer. This project works with rural communities in Sierra Leone to cultivate organic cocoa, improve their quality of life, and empower local farmers.
When the family behind Mas Salagros discovered the project, they were deeply inspired by its positive social and environmental impact. They chose to support Organic Africa Chocolate as part of their commitment to sustainability and responsible development.
The cocoa, carefully grown and classified as Diamond One, is transported directly to the artisanal production facility in Barcelona. There, it is blended with superfoods and naturally sweetened with dates, without added sugar. This process preserves the cocoa’s nutritional properties and unique flavor.
To produce clean chocolate, it is essential to cultivate clean cocoa in Africa. This process not only supports the well-being of communities and the environment but also helps children by giving them the opportunity to attend school. The cocoa is grown naturally and sustainably, then roasted at low temperatures without added chemicals, preservatives, or sugars. Only superfoods are added, creating pure chocolate – a healthy pleasure that supports both health and the planet.
Nutritious and delicious, this chocolate is made with the highest quality cocoa and sweetened with superfoods such as tiger nut, matcha, sesame, and dates. It offers a unique flavor and is a more mindful, healthy option, crafted only with natural ingredients that truly benefit its consumers.
The cocoa comes from rural communities in Sierra Leone, where it is carefully grown without intermediaries, ensuring the highest quality from its origin.
Organic Africa Chocolate stands out for its holistic approach. Firstly, its social project empowers rural communities in Africa. Secondly, it offers exceptional taste and nutritional value, made with natural ingredients that truly benefit consumers. Lastly, its sustainable packaging is crafted from plant fibers and eco-friendly dyes. This packaging uses natural materials or by-products, such as banana peels, which are pressed to compact the fibers. With every purchase, you not only enjoy high-quality chocolate but also contribute to positive change in the lives of the farmers.
At Mas Salagros, the exclusive Organic Africa Chocolate is offered as a welcome treat for our guests and features in a special dessert on the tasting menu of Restaurant 1497, which has been awarded a Sol Repsol and a Michelin Green Star, recognizing its commitment to sustainability and culinary excellence.
For those who love unique experiences, we offer a pairing activity at Can Vilar, a charming villa accessed through a forest of century-old oak trees. Right in front of the villa, picturesque vineyards create the perfect setting to pair local DO Alella wines with the exquisite Organic Africa Chocolate.
Additionally, exclusive chocolate gift boxes are available at the reception, making for an ideal keepsake or special treat. We also create customized packages for groups, perfect for those seeking meaningful and memorable gifts.
