Natural, lecithin-free organic ingredients

Natural, lecithin-free organic ingredients

All of our chocolate and coatings are produced according to organic standards and are guaranteed non-GMO. We buy the main ingredients for our chocolate and coatings, such as cocoa, sugar and vanilla, directly from smallholder cooperatives in the countries of origin. Since 2022, the cocoa mass and cocoa butter for our chocolate and coatings have come from our own Swiss cocoa production facility, PRONATEC Swiss Cocoa Production – the world’s first exclusively organic cocoa processing plant.

We use only natural ingredients in all our recipes. Additives and flavourings have no place here; we use high-quality organic cocoa butter rather than soy lecithin. Our chocolate and coatings contain SYRAMENA raw cane sugar or coconut blossom sugar instead of white sugar. Genuine Bourbon vanilla from Madagascar is used to enrich some recipes.

Fairtrade und Bio Kuvertüren

Fair trade

It is very important to us that our cocoa, sugar and vanilla producers receive a fair price for their products. That’s why all our organic chocolate and coatings are fair trade certified.

The fair trade premiums not only offer smallholder families a valuable additional source of income but also enable investments to be made in community projects in the areas of education and health as well as the improvement of agricultural infrastructure. The entire production chain is free from child labour. In 2024, we paid out 2’111’370 USD in fair trade premiums together with our customers. Learn more about how your purchase of fair trade products makes a difference.

Possible other certifications

Our organic chocolate and coatings are certified according to the EU organic production regulation and are available in kosher and halal-compliant quality. Certain recipes can also be supplied with Fairtrade certification (physical traceability), Fair for Life (FFL) and the Biopartenaire label. For annual order volumes of 24 metric tons or more, further certifications such as USDA Organic (NOP) are available on request.

Single origin

Our single-origin chocolate and coatings in organic quality are one of our special highlights. The cocoa comes from specific growing regions such as the Dominican Republic, Peru or Madagascar. Each source region brings its own characteristic flavour notes, ranging from fine and fruity to a strong but pleasantly bitter cocoa flavour. Our clear statement of origin and the complete traceability right along the production chain are unique in the chocolate and coatings production business, and offer you as a manufacturer of chocolate products, baked goods or confectionery the opportunity to tell the story behind your product and so differentiate yourself from the competition.

Vegan chocolate and coatings and alternative sweeteners

Demand for vegan chocolate and coatings is constantly increasing while the challenge remains to offer as authentic a flavour as possible. Our purely plant-based recipes combine the creamy richness and intense cocoa flavour of traditional chocolate. With the addition of high-quality ingredients such as rice milk powder, oat milk powder or ground hazelnuts, they deliver outstanding flavour across the board. Recipes using coconut blossom sugar as an alternative source of sweetness appeal to health-conscious consumers.

Bespoke recipes to meet customer requirements

If customers order more than 24 metric tons, we can work with them to develop their own bespoke chocolate and coatings recipes. We are specialists in creating chocolate and coatings with a distinctive flavour profile that perfectly enhances the desired product. This offers you a way of standing out on the market by having your own unique recipe.

Showcase – Bespoke chocolate and coatings solution

Initial situation

  • An established supplier of a well-known organic chocolate brand was looking for a follow-on solution for its outdated production

  • Maintaining the existing flavour profile was vital to retain loyal customers
  • It approached PRONATEC as a partner for this project

  • The manufacturer’s desired country of origin for the cocoa beans was new to PRONATEC

Solution

  • We made contact with the local producers to ensure supply of the required organic cocoa beans

  • As the specific processing properties of cocoa beans vary by origin, we had to develop a new roasting profile for the beans

  • The capabilities of our own processing facility meant we were able to continually optimise the roast parameters in close consultation with the customer until the desired flavour profile was achieved

  • Based on this, individual recipes were then developed for the different varieties of chocolate

Outcome

With a great deal of intuition and expertise, we developed optimal roast parameters and bespoke chocolate and coatings recipes for organic cocoa beans from a new country of origin – tailored exactly to our customer’s requirements to maintain the familiar flavour profile.
