Batukaru Chocolates was born out of passion for good healthy chocolate bars based on the personal requests from teachers and students of a local yoga studio in Bali.
Batukaru Chocolates bars are produced with no processed/refined sugar (we use Lontar Palm sugar / coconut sugar from Karangasem), no dairy products (we add healthy cocoa butter instead), no gluten, no soy lecithin, and no preservatives at all. Each of our bars are wrapped with double coated aluminium foil to avoid direct contact with aluminium and therefore much safer to consume.
What was initially started as a simple plain 85% dark chocolate bar, has progressed into a more diverse flavours, inspired by the suggestions and ideas of the people of this community. Since it was born in 2016, Batukaru Chocolates have now over 18 flavours in total.
Batukaru chocolates chooses to support local Balinese by working with K5 Jari foundation who helps cocoa farmers of West Bali improve the quality of production. We also support Yayasan Muntigunung; a foundation that empowers poor women in East Bali.
All Batukaru Chocolate bars are artisan-made and are produced in a limited-non-factory scale quantity.
Our vision and mission is to produce healthy high quality dark chocolate for genuine chocolate lovers , and at the same time supporting and giving back to the local community in Bali.
