Small Farmers. Big Change
Equal Exchange's delicious coffees, teas, chocolates and snacks support positive change - change to a food system that no longer worked for most small-scale farmers or consumers. We believe there's a better way of doing business that's fair, earth-friendly and lets you know where the foods you buy come from. We invite you to join us in creating big change - for farmers, the environment and you..

Farmer Cooperatives in three countries have joined together in a unique collaboration to provide ingredients for this organic hot cocoa. Farmers of the CONACO Cooperative in the Dominican Republic grow the organic cacao (cocoa beans), the organic sugar cane is produced by co-ops in Paraguay, and the organic milk is from the Organic Valley co-op in Wisconsin. Your purchase of this co-operatively produced cocoa helps to ensure a better future for farmers and their communities.

Equal Exchange is a worker-owned, Fair Trade organization. After introduced high quality, fairly traded coffee to U.S. consumers in 1986, we are now proud to offer a broad line of delicious fairly traded organic chocolate products, including chocolate bars, hot cocoa and baking cocoa.

OK but not a gourmet product

Cons: Bad Flavor

Describe Yourself: Quality Oriented

Best Uses: Relaxing

Bottom Line: not recommended

While I appreciate that this product is fair trade as well as organic, I am disappointed that it's is not real hot chocolate. It tasted too sweet for me: I prefer dark chocolate with high cocoa content, and this has far more sugar and milk than real cocoa (according to the ingredients listed).

Pros: Complex Flavor, You only need hot water

Cons: A bit hard to dissolve

Describe Yourself: Quality Oriented

Best Uses: Whenever

Bottom Line: recommended

I rarely purchase instant hot chocolate because it's usually so disappointing. However, if you don't want to go through the trouble of making it from scratch, this is an excellent alternative. The chocolate has a complex flavor that isn't too sweet, and all you need is hot water to make a satisfying cup of comfort! When you add the fact that it's organic and fair trade, you end up feeling good all over.

I love hot chocolate, but it so hard to find it without hydrogenated oil... and I don't always feel like making it from scratch. This tastes really good and is super-easy... just add hot water! Try it!!
