Description

On the fertile soils of the Ambanja district, is an organic cacao orchard that makes up one part of a 2000 hectare Akesson Estate in northwest Madagascarโ€™s Sambirano valley.

The estate is owned by Bertil ร…kesson. Before Bertil bought the plantation back in 1998, it was owned by the government (like every plantation in Madagascar back then).

The cacao mainly consists of Trinitario (a cacao varietal) trees that were brought to the island by the French, and a small part of Criollo. Over the years Bertil and his family have played an important role in elevating the standards of high-quality Madagascan cacao.

Darkroom Chocolate

Darkroom Chocolate is an independent, small-batch bean-to-bar chocolate maker based in North Walsham, Norfolk, UK. The makers, Natalie and Mike, are dedicated to crafting the purest form of dark chocolate, made with just two ingredients โ€” ethically sourced cacao and unrefined sugar. Each bar begins with carefully sourced cacao beans from independent farms, cooperatives, and social enterprises around the world. Darkroom prioritises traceability, fair trade, and sustainable agriculture, ensuring that every step โ€” from harvest to final bar โ€” supports both quality and ethical production. As a fully independent and self-funded chocolate maker, Darkroom operates without corporate backing or external investors. Instead, they choose to collaborate exclusively with independent shops, cafรฉs, and retailers, strengthening community and transparency across their supply chain. Driven by passion and purpose, founders Nat and Mike bring creativity and craftsmanship to every batch. Their hands-on approach โ€” from rescuing grinders to experimenting with limited-origin cacao โ€” reflects their commitment sustainability and flavour innovation. Each bar tells a story of origin, process, and chocolate artistry.
