Marou Faiseurs de Chocolat
 |
Chocolate |
Marou Faiseurs de Chocolat was founded by Samuel Maruta and Vincent Mourou, who met during a camping trip in Vietnam in 2010. They sought to craft high-quality chocolate from Vietnamese cacao, establishing a direct trade relationship with local farmers to ensure premium quality and fair pricing. Their journey has led them to become pioneers in the bean-to-bar chocolate movement in Asia, focusing on single-origin chocolates that reflect the unique flavors of Vietnam's diverse cacao regions. |

Marou spent its early years scouring the Vietnamese countryside for great cacao. In trial and error, we got lost in such extraordinary places… Unwrap the magic of exquisite flavors this Christmas with Marou's limited-edition chocolates. Perfectly crafted to make your holidays sweet and memorable! A 48-Hour Cacao Adventure into Chocolate Bliss. Directly from the farm, we meticulously test each cacao bag, ensuring it meets Marou's high standards before entry into our chocolate factory. Marou’s chocolate has a particular complexity and variability, because unlike most chocolate makers, they can create theirs from beans they select at the source. This means they have control of everything, from farm to bar. TRANSPARENT DIRECT TRADE 100% VIETNAMESE INGREDIENTS 6 TERROIR CHOCOLATE. |
