Madagascar Chocolate
There are two main chocolate manufacturers in Madagascar, Chocolaterie Robert and Cinagra, producing high quality chocolate from cocoa grown exclusively in Madagascar.
Both Cinagra and Chocolaterie Robert are bean-to-bar chocolate makers of single origin, meaning they grow their cocoa as well as produce their chocolate in Madagascar.
Additionally, Chocolaterie Colbert is a range of handmade pralines and chocolate bars made and sold on a small scale only in the Patisserie at Hotel Colbert using ingredients supplied by Chocolaterie Robert and Cinagra.
