We are intensely happy (see what we did there) to share that Camino’s 88% Intensely Dark Bar has been named Product of the Year at the Canadian Fairtrade Awards! Made especially for dark chocolate lovers, the Intensely Dark Bar’s exquisite taste and smooth texture will make you melt.
Tom, Shannon and Sam were in Vancouver last month to accept the award, which we proudly share with our producer partners in the Dominican Republic, Peru, and Paraguay for the incredible beans and cane that make this chocolate so smooth and delicious.

Here’s what our sugar producing partner from Paraguay had to say about it:
“We share with you the joy of receiving the Fairtrade Award and we send our congratulations to the entire La Siembra (Camino) team.” – Andrés González. General Manager, Manduvirá Co-operative
