Raaka Chocolate is a Brooklyn-based chocolate maker that produces single-origin, bean-to-bar chocolate by hand. The company relies on exclusively organic ingredients, and its factory operates as allergen-free, with nuts never entering the facility and dairy or gluten avoided in the majority of its bars. It buys cacao directly from farmers and pays at least a 20% premium above market prices as part of its fair-trade approach, and it wraps all bars in 100% post-consumer recycled paper while powering its operations with sustainable energy; husks are donated to a local after-school program for mulch and fertilizer. Raaka has earned recognition for flavor innovations, including features on the Cooking Channel and a 2013 Good Food Award. In 2022, the company expanded its product line with a new Waffle Cone Squares offering.
