Can we really trust the labels on the food we buy? 🤔
A recent ABC Four Corners investigation has shone a light on some deeply troubling questions around food certifications, supply chains and the gap that can sometimes exist between what a label promises and what is really happening behind it.
At Cuvée, this is one of the reasons we don’t rely on these types of certification labels to tell our story.
Instead, we work directly with suppliers we know and trust, sourcing cacao that meets our standards for both quality and ethics. We believe in building genuine relationships, asking questions, knowing where our cacao comes from and being transparent about how we work. 🤝
We’re a small chocolate company, and we know we can’t solve the huge and complex issues facing the global cacao industry on our own. But we can make conscious choices about who we work with, how we source our ingredients, and the kind of chocolate business we want to be.
And hopefully, by doing things differently – and talking openly about why – we can play a small part in influencing others too.
Thank you to Four Corners for shining a light on this important and troubling topic. It’s a conversation the chocolate industry needs to keep having.
