There aren't enough banana flavoured things in this world so here's our go at changing that. Milk chocolate blended with real bananas and Madagascan vanilla. Roasted, malty bananas and super rich cocoa are what you'll find here. A banana split in the form of a handy chocolate bar. Yum!

Heist are an independent bean to bar chocolate manufacturer from Wales that specialise in micro-batches of stone ground chocolate using organic, single origin, cocoa beans. We believe in only using simple, recognisable ingredients in our chocolate, with our hands touching every part of the process; from roasting cocoa beans and refining them into delicious chocolate to stitching every bar into its paper envelope. 

Their Chocolate

They buy their beans exclusively from the Cuencas Del Huallaga Coop in San Martin , Peru. Heist Chocolate is a small company and they don’t have the ability to the visit the farms that grow these special beans for us. So, until that time, we put our trust into the people we work with, such as Justine from Cacao Latitudes. You can find out more about her and Cacao Latitudes here

Cacao Latitudes and Cuencas Del Huallaga

300 meters above sea level in San Martin, Peru, an association of over 500 farmers carefully tend to their crops, cultivating high quality, Fairtrade and Organic cocoa. Operating across Ucayali, Campanilla and San Jose de Sisa, the reach of Cuencas del Huallaga is extensive. The support of the association is inclusive to farmers who would have had no other choice but to sell to the small middle men at low prices. Cuencas
de Huallaga has tapped into their flavor potential and successfully entered the specialty market, while also focusing on Organic and Fairtrade cocoa production since 2015. By purchasing beans and maintaining a close relationship with the association, Cacao Latitudes supports them in their pursuit of making technical investments, enhancing agricultural production, improving quality, preventing deforestation and effectively mapping the farms of all their members.
